Purple circle shows cool car.

Artists inpression of possible canopy reshape if wieghting and limb failure may occur.

I know bugger all about this species of tree,but imo we don't give trees enough credit for being smart,my guess is, if left alone this tree will strenghthen up in the right areas and be around for a lot more years to come.

The only time this tree is likely to become a problem is when some arbo gets his hands/saws on it..
