Removal of larch trees along a drive to a country house where we have been removing large conifers surrounding the gardens. They were planted as a screen but had now outgrown their position, so we removed three to allow the drive to be extended with the help of our ROBO-FLAIL.

The lime pollards in West Lavington look a little different after a season’s growth
The lime trees in West Lavington which underwent pollarding in the early spring look a little different after a season’s growth…

Pollarding an avenue of Lime Trees in West Lavington
What a difference a week makes – storms and strong winds delayed the start to a lime avenue pollarding project in West Lavington.
Great work by all involved – 2 MEWPS do make it safe and much easier.
See here for details of the MEWPs used by Conservation Contractors
We finally were able to get back to finish the pollards in West Lavington once the school had broken up for Easter. The recent high winds delayed the start of the project
Great job by all involved.
Hedge trimming at National Trust Avebury
Trimming of National Trust Hedges at Avebury within the garden of The Manor – a mixture of yew and box.
We also needed to undertake some reductions and adjustments to the topiary, as well as lots of straight hedges – excellent job by Tad & Garry.
Here’s the link to Avebury – open again after 18th February.
Hedge trimming at Clyffe Hall in Lavington
Back to finish off some hedge trimming that required a little more reach at Clyffe Hall in Lavington! We had been there earlier when we cut all the formal hedges in the gardens, but could not reach the larger yews. So a return visit with our ‘red’ 23m tracked MEWP was needed so we could finish the job.

Hornbeam hedging in Avebury Trusloe
Tad and Matty have been planting Hornbeam hedging in Avebury Trusloe – a few hundred metres to improve the garden boundary
Trusloe is a Street in the village of Avebury Trusloe which measures approximately 189 metres long.
Hornbeams are hardwood trees in the flowering plant genus Carpinus in the birch family Betulaceae. The 30–40 species occur across much of the temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
Pollarding 98 Lime Trees in Tidworth
A “before, during and after” of pollarding 98 Lime trees in Tidworth. This was the last few of 98 done over the winter months. Good job done by Scott, Antony and Cleeve.
If you’ve never spotted our page of definitions of tree work, check it out here.
We used both our 26m MEWPS, including our most recent one, the Teupen LEO 23 GT – ideal for quick, efficient jobs: It is especially suited for job sites that provide little space and require great working heights. It has a variable and quick multi-position stabilising system, 180˚rotatable basket and flexible articulated and telescopic boom. See here for full details of our three MEWPS.
Roadside hedging at West Lavington
Our last post for 2019: Our task here was to remove some scrubbing roadside hedging on the nasty S bends on the main Devizes to Salisbury Road at West Lavington. The job was made very much easier by the lack of traffic. It was unable to be done by hand so needed the tractor and flail time.
