The Parish Council has been made aware today of deterioration in an ash tree situated within an allotments hedgerow at Hall End (Hilly Lane).
The tree has significantly deteriorated since an earlier inspection, carried out by Bartlett Tree Experts this July and a fungus known as Dryad's Saddle has been identified. Works are currently being scheduled to have it reduced by half to remedy the issue and give the ash its best chance of survival.
This post will be updated when date(s) are known for those works, but in the meantime visitors to the allotments are asked to keep away from the ash, especially during inclement weather conditions.
