Tree Surgeon in Bardney

Tree work around Bardney and the Witham villages, on the western side of the Lincolnshire limewoods.

Bardney is a large village on the east bank of the River Witham, about nine miles east of Lincoln and west of Horncastle. It is best known for its abbey remains, its former sugar beet factory, and the Water Rail Way cycle path along the old railway line by the river. Will and John cover Bardney, Southrey and the surrounding villages for garden, farm and commercial tree work.

One important difference: Bardney is in West Lindsey, not East Lindsey. Tree Preservation Orders and conservation area notices here go to West Lindsey District Council, which advises that trees with a stem diameter of 7.5cm or more in a conservation area are protected. If you are not sure whether your tree is covered, ask the council or ask us at the site visit. Our guide to tree preservation orders explains how the rules work.

The woodland around Bardney is special. The Bardney Limewoods are a National Nature Reserve made up of ancient woods dominated by small-leaved lime, a tree that is rare in Britain, managed by the Forestry Commission. Chambers Farm Wood sits off the Bardney to Wragby road. Gardens and farms on the edge of these woods often have mature lime, oak and ash, and ash dieback is affecting roadside and field-edge ash across the area.

Towards the river the land is low and flat, and willows along drains and field edges grow fast and need regular attention. Typical jobs are crown reductions, hedge work, and removing or dismantling large trees, using the tracked spider lift or the 13m 4x4 MEWP on soft ground. See domestic tree surgery, tree felling and removal, MEWP access work and commercial tree work. Ring Will on 07506 185049 or John on 07538 128890, or send the details through the contact page.
