This would involve removing one diseased Ash tree with a a poor union in the upper crown (photo2), one Sycamore (photo3) and various small shrubs. We would also like to remove on diseased Ash tree slightly up the path (photo4) which has a large canker and leans heavily over the path. The trees are marked G1 on the map.
