Flat 6 52 - 54 The Drive Hove BN3 3PD

T1 Sycamore. Multi-stemmed tree. Central limb significantly decayed at base - approx 1/3rd of radial thickness of stem remains as sound wood when probed. When examined with a nylon mallet, resonance was typical of a hollowing cavity. Application is to remove central, decayed stem to origin at approx 1.5m from ground. This stem is approx 400mm diameter. Surrounding, remaining 4 stems are between approx 600-800mm diameter. Other defects, decay and atypical morphology exist around the base of the tree. A further survey is scheduled for when the tree is in leaf to establish physiological health. Cobra bracing is to be installed in the Spring. Deadwood above 25mm to be removed.
