Based on a recommendation, we asked the Aspect team to come out to visit Wellington College’s 400-acre well-wooded estate with a view to supporting us on arboricultural matters, including live development projects, as well as an update to the College’s woodland management plan. On appointment to undertake the work, the service provided by Aspect has been outstanding; thorough, reliable, prompt, and knowledgeable. It’s great to know that we have an experienced arboricultural team on hand to assist us at short notice too. Moreover, Aspect’s multidisciplinary nature means that we can seamlessly tie in arboricultural matters with ecology and soft landscaping considerations, assisting greatly with the smooth running of the College’s development projects.
Louise Piper, Major Projects Manager, Wellington College
