Threats/Risks to Tree: Tree is susceptible to compaction, trunk damage from lawnmowers and root severance involved with development and service maintenance. Tree is also susceptible to power line clearing on eastern side of canopy.
Hazards/Risks:
Co-dominant branches
V-crotched
Other
Other/Notes: Tree is v-crotched and will eventually require cabling. A small wound exists at the base of the trunk on the tree's south-west side, and the tree is starting to lift the footpath on the northern side; although it has not cracked the concrete. The form of the tree is slightly irregular due to the v-crotched trunk, however it should be noted that there are no powerlines directly interfering with the growth of the canopy, allowing good size and form to develop. Powerlines are present some distance to the trees east and have not impacted on initial form development, although they will prevent full expansion of the trees canopy in this direction.
Structure Rating: 4
