1 Lister Close Exeter EX2 4SD
T1 - Holm Oak tree with ?Honey fungus? at the base: Pollard at approximately 30 feet high Evidence from myself, Hywel Davies, Consultant for Exe Tree Care Ltd I have had time today (Wednesday 13th December 2023) to inspect the Holm Oak tree at No 1, Lister close, and have some concerns regarding the presence of Honey fungus at the base. I believe that the presence of Honey fungus to the degree seen in the photographic evidence provided is causing root damage/death the therefore undermining the structural integrity of the tree. The tree is also thinning, ie reduced density of foliage, and with dieback present. This is a sign that the roots/vascular tissues are struggling to supply the crown with water/nutrients, most probably due to root death/damage. Due to it's height , weight, and proximity to the house and the main road I am concerned about maintaining the tree in its current form, and think it best to reduce the tree to a pollard, leaving it at approximately 30 feet high. Lower growth can be maintained. Topping cuts will be between approximately, 12, 16 & 18 inch cuts on the three main stems.
