• T1 - ROBINIA ~ twin stemmed at 8ms in decline with northern side of crown 80% dead. Fell due to poor declining condition and proposed high potential target area of new playground for nursery school adjacent to tree. T2 - 2 ADJACENT SMALLER ROBINIAS ~ reduce height of both trees by 2ms and shorten laterals branches by 1m to mitigate effects of subsequent exposure from remove of T1.
  Granted Permission, 2021-03-24 · Cambridge City Council · 21/0125/TTPO
• T1 Robinia ~ Twin-stemmed from 8m - this tree is in decline with northern side of crown 80% dead with a large quantity of mistletoe. If the tree is removed now, the remaining Robinia's in the row will be significantly exposed to unfamiliar air forces; Robina's have a natural characteristic of brittle wood, so it would be advisable to just reduce the crown of this tree initially to allow the remaining trees to adjust before removing it in 2 to 3 years. It is therefore recommended that the crown be reduced by 50% in preparation for future removal.
