Tree Risk Management for Bodelwyddan Castle in North Wales

Client: Warner Hotels - Ground Control

Project Type: Large-scale tree risk survey

Services:  Visual Tree Assessment (VTA), Tree Schedule, Tree Risk Management Report & Plan

Summary:

Bodelwyddan Castle, our Grade II-listed hotel located in North Wales, overlooks a beautiful valley and 200 acres of Victorian parkland. The client only aimed to fulfill their obligations to uphold their 'duty of care' visitors, the, and staff but also to produce a detailed tree plan for the grounds.

We conducted surveys using Tree Plotter tree management software and GPS Trimble hardware to collect tree data. All individual trees were visually assessed, and groups of trees and woodlands were walked and mapped to provide a fully comprehensive inventory of the tree population within the park. A Health & Safety report and plans also prepared, which included an extensive tree schedule outlining recommended tree works and future re-inspection frequency.
