Here are some photos of the ash tree removal. The tree was taken down in a garden as it had Ganoderma Fungus which is a heart wood decay.
It involved methodically and sectionally felling out limbs via gravity or assisted by rope. We also rigged off the majority of tree to prevent as much lawn damage as possible and to prevent damage to the surrounding beech hedge and the water pipes within the hedge.

More about Ganoderma
Ganoderma is a genus of polypore fungi in the family Ganodermataceae that includes about 80 species, many from tropical regions. Because of their genetic diversity and use in traditional Asian medicines, they are a genus with possible economic value. Ganoderma can be differentiated from other polypores because they have a double-walled basidiospore. They may be called shelf mushrooms or bracket fungi.
Ganoderma are characterized by basidiocarps that are large, perennial, woody brackets also called “conks“. They are lignicolous and leathery either with or without a stem. The fruit bodies typically grow in a fan-like or hoof-like form on the trunks of living or dead trees. They have double-walled, truncate spores with yellow to brown ornamented inner layers.
