An International Society of Arboriculture’s (ISA) Tree Risk Assessment was performed on the
subject trees to determine their health, structure, risk rating and suitability for retention within
their current surroundings.

The ISA “Tree Risk Assessment” and is designed to guide a systematic and structured
approach to assessing tree risk and managing these risks. The level of assessment
undertaken for this Arboricultural Appraisal was a Basic Level 2 visual assessment of the
surrounding area and the subject tree’s structure and health, from a ground level. It is a
qualitative risk assessment that includes the use of basic tools and techniques, i.e. cavity
probing, minor root collar excavation, measuring tapes and devices and photography to gather
information.

The timeframe for this report is the inspection period; re-inspection should occur 1 year from
this inspection.

No additional specialist equipment was used, no conclusive comments on what may have or
may be happening within the internal structure of the tree will be made.

No tissue or soil samples have been collected or submitted for testing.

The information contained in this report is based on a visual inspection of each tree and its
location, species, health and condition at the time of inspection unless otherwise stated. It is
the author's opinion and is a 'snapshot in time' of the specific tree's health and condition at the
time of the inspection and no guarantee can be given that faults or issues may not arise in the
future.

The relevant tree information has been recorded to be used as a functional proactive tool to
determine a safe management strategy for the trees, taking into account past works, past
storm damage, site activities, age/condition, location and future use of the area.

The trees were not tagged, see Site Plan and photographs for tree location within the site.
