Fell weeping willow (T1) in small back garden and replace with two cultivated apple trees, one to be standard in size. Weeping willow was planted about 40 years ago by previous owners and as a large, water demanding species on a chalk bank, is an inappropriate species choice for the site. Regular pollarding has minimised the impact to neighbouring gardens and the old flint walls that comprise the boundaries. However we would prefer to plant two cultivated apple trees, one to be standard, being species that will not overtake the space every year, will alos provide habitat and of course, apples. The weeping willow also has a fungal infection (which would be expected for this species on a poor site), so the regular maintenance required is becoming a safety concern.
