Monolith Coronet

A member of our highly skilled team was tasked with creating the monolith, which requires the skills of an experienced climber. Once the veteran oak’s limbs were ‘section felled’ and lowered to the ground, they set about creating a ‘coronet’ at the branch ends to resemble the fracture that might occur when a limb is lost naturally as a result of wind or storm damage. This approach provides a more natural look to the monolith and helps the establishment of lichen and fungi.

This veteran oak tree no longer poses a risk to passers-by; instead, it will continue to enhance the landscape and provide homes for a myriad of species.
