Client: Private Garden

Location: Thurloe Square, Central London

Here is the sequence of Crane lifting Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) Trees into position in a London rear garden with no access.

The crane is in position, the trees arrive on site and the rootballs are fitted into a frame and lifting equipment is attached. The tree is lifted upright on the bed of the truck the lift begins and the tree is on it's way

As soon as the tree has reached a height high enough to clear the roof, the crane starts to turn then the tree is carefully manoeuvred over the rooftops and positioned directly over the rear garden. The tree is then lowered...

 ...and finer adjustments are made to direct the tree into it's pre-prepared planting pit. The lifting frames are removed, and the tree is planted along with the three others and a screen is created for a very happy customer.
