       Tree Surveys
       We have recently had a survey carried out on all of the trees which are on Parish
       Council  land  and  were  unfortunately  informed  that  many  of  them  along  Elder
       Road  and  in  the  Cemetery  are  unhealthy  and  need  to  be  felled  during  the
       coming  months  and  years,  predominantly  due  to  widespread  Ash  Dieback          When you respond to advertisers, do please tell them
       disease. We are getting second opinions on some of the more noticeable trees to        you saw their advert in this magazine  -  it helps them
       ensure we do all we can for them, and are also drawing up a management plan
       to plant a variety of trees to replace those being removed.                            monitor the effectiveness of their advert and helps us
