Cutting a tree back hard to a framework of trunk and main branches to control its long-term size.
Pollarding in Stirling
Stirling 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. Home turf for Treescapes Scotland. Stirling's mix of Victorian villas around the King's Park, the wooded slopes below Stirling Castle, and mature gardens through the Old Town and Riverside mean plenty of established trees that need regular crown work, pruning and the occasional emergency call-out after a windy spell off the Ochils.
