Tree Survey followed by take down of Holm Oak tree from the car park at a soon-to-open children’s home in Westbury
Clear results were showing the cross-section of decay present in a tree removed from the car park of a soon-to-open children’s home in Westbury in the grounds of the former Chalford House Hotel. This was all confirmed in the PICUS report. As you can see, the tree looked perfectly healthy from the outside but had to be taken down as it was unsafe, especially over a car park. And we needed to wait until the birds had finished nesting to undertake the work.
Well done by all involved; the new spider MEWP proving its worth, along with the timber crane o remove the timber; no heavy lifting at CC Ltd!

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 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.

A few more roadside pollards this week in Tidworth 16 September
These were 25m lime trees with the garrison completion of a works package started earlier in the year, but we held off while the trees were actively growing.
And more end of September…. Great job by Scott, Steve, Antony, Len, Jamie and Fin over the last week
New Timber Trailer
Here’s our new timber trailer having its first day out today clearing up several days of felling…
Removal of 100 ft Cedar of Lebanon in Worton
Sad to see this go – a local landmark coming down in Worton due to decay.
The decay, which you can see in the photo, was detected in the base of this 100 ft Cedar of Lebanon. Using the Picus Sonic Tomograph, the decay was clear.
This was the last one of six that were there before the houses were built on Cedar Close; now, perhaps Cedar-less Close!
The trunk was taken down to the West Country for wood carving into something quite unique. Howard & Sons undertook the haulage
A replacement tree has been planted.

And our post in November 2022 will tell you about its wonderful transformation into this tabletop.
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.
