Cutting a tree back hard to a framework of trunk and main branches to control its long-term size.
Pollarding in Dunfermline
Dunfermline customers looking for pollarding turn to Treescapes Scotland. Pollarding cuts a tree back to a framework of trunk and main branches, then keeps it at that size with repeat cuts every few years — a traditional method for controlling large species like willow, lime and sycamore in gardens or along boundaries where full size isn't practical. It's a bigger commitment than a one-off prune, since a pollarded tree needs the cycle repeating to stay healthy and in shape. Contact us for a free quote. Dunfermline's Pittencrieff Park and its older residential streets around the abbey have well-established trees — crown work and pruning here are about keeping mature trees healthy in a historic townscape.
