Some Before and After photos follow.  Safely accessible saplings were removed from wall heads with a 12 foot telescopic anvil pruner (Fiskars).  Brambles were removed for the interior and exterior of the tower grounds, ivy on the tower walls was trimmed. Additional photos were taken to help estimate the work required to remove the dead tree from the NE corner of Building 1 and to remove the fallen trees resting on or covering Buildings 4 and 5.
