Pollarding willows in Cricklade
What a difference a day or two makes! Here are some pics of Trevor and Rich undertaking a re-pollard for Wiltshire County Council in Cricklade; started last Thursday in the snow and completed on Monday in the sunshine. The job was to re-pollard five willow trees on an area of open space. The trees had previously been pollarded and the height of the trees ranged from 12-20m. Our Cherry Picker came in useful!
