Harrow School Emergency Fell

We were called by Harrow School to fell a large Sycamore tree that was in danger of falling into the schools dormitory. The tree had two main stems, one of which fell over in last weeks storm leaving the other unstable and dangerous. As you can see in the photos below Greg cut a directional gob cut into the tree and successfully and safely felled it. 

The tree was over 30m tall and Greg took some amazing photos of the views over London whilst attaching the winch cable.

The timber from the fell will be milled and returned to Harrow School to be used in their craft department.
