Proposal

It is a group of ash trees, showing signs of ash die-back. They are located at the bottom of the railway embankment. 2 have already fallen down across the river. I want to cutdown these diseased trees to prevent them falling in an uncontrolled way and potentially blocking the river and causing flooding. There is a further ash tree next to the road which has advanced ash die back and I am concerned for public safety. The Parish Council notified me of their concerns with all of these trees.
