1 / 5When a working cemetery in Gorton, Manchester needed hazardous trees removed, NorthernArb Tree Services was appointed to carry out the work with the sensitivity the setting demands.
Working in a cemetery requires more than tree skills — every decision has to account for proximity to historic memorials and grave structures, public access routes in daily use, and the need to keep noise and disruption to an absolute minimum.
What we did
- Full risk assessment completed before work began
- Low-impact methods and hand tools prioritised throughout
- Noise kept to a minimum out of respect for visitors
- Safe removal with zero disturbance to graves or memorials
- Qualified, fully insured arborists on site at all times
- All arisings cleared and the site left clean and tidy
"We understood from the start that this was a sensitive environment to work in. Respect for the site shaped every decision we made, from the methods we used to how we worked around the graves and memorials."
