Felling big trees can often lead on to big stump grinding.

I don’t want the youngsters to have all the fun, I still like to get my harness out for a big tree, just makes me ache more in the evening.

It’s not often that I get the chainsaw mill out but sometimes you get a trunk that would just be criminal to just ring up.

Two cat rescues in two days by Richardson tree surgeons. My son, Sebastian, retrieved a cat from a tree in Histon yesterday and I did the same in Comberton today.
I was some what relieved when I got there to see that it was in a small-ish Maple tree as opposed to my last cat rescue which was at the top of an 80ft Elm tree in Papworth woods.
Both Seb's kitten and this cat were stuck in the trees overnight in sub-zero temperatures but still weren't very pleased to see their savior, unlike their human servants/owners.

This week we had the honour of working on this 400 year old Mulberry tree at Christ’s College.
This black Mulberry tree, known as The Milton Mulberry, dates back to 1608 and was named after John Milton who attended the college between 1624 and 1632.
The props were added after the tree uprooted during a storm in 1795. We intend to replace these props later this year.
