- The Old Rectory, Church Road, Holford, Nether Stowey, Bridgwater, TA5 1RYApprovedRegarding the tree, it is clear that it is not in good health, and we observed that approximately half of the crown has a low leaf density with discoloured leaves. It appears to be suffering with canker. It was obvious from the limb that failed that the tree has been colonised by the fungus Polyporus squamosus. We therefore want a heavy reduction or pollard so that you would be left with essentially just the main stem.Received 25 Aug 2026Decided 10 Nov 2026T/16/26/002
