WESTONBIRT ARBORETUM - ANNUAL ARB SHOW - UKs LARGEST TREE MOVING SPADE NOW LIFTING UP TO A 2.5M POD!
Did you pop along to the amazing arb show in May this year? We showcased our impressive Optimal spade, the largest of our fleet, and the largest in the UK! Summer tree-relocation very much continuing up to a 20cm diametre at breast height (30cm dbh during the cooler planting season!), lifting a massive 2.5m rooting pod. Let's discuss the feasibility of your project.
Move it, don't lose it!
Windsor Great Park - Tree Moving
We are working for HM Crown at Windsor Great Park, relocating young Oaks as succession trees for many ancient trees, improving the age class balance. It's great to be assisting the future of one of Europe's most important tree collections and its associated ecology resources.

VETERAN CONSULTANCY & SOLUTIONS
YESTERDAY'S TREE - TODAY'S TREE - TOMORROW'S TREE
We had the privilege of working on The Druids Oak with the City of London Corporation at Burnham Beeches.
Tension on the historic (c40+installation) cable braces (now pulling on deadwood anchor points) led to our recommendation for some intervention to hopefully aid future management. Intervening at this point will allow time for both the tree, and its custodians, to respond to the inevitable failure of the (piano string) tension support from the cable braces. This semi-dynamic, adjustable aid, with the potential for a modular attachment propping system, will (as with any venture into tree management projects) be an interesting project to watch for its future progression and development, over many years to come.
WONDER WHAT WE DO ON OUR DAYS OFF? ARC 100!
