Mature Horse Chestnut tree at the rear of St Andrews church graveyard. Removal of said tree.The tree is growing on two main trunks. One trunk is dead whilst the other is showing sever signs of stress and die back.Part of the tree has fallen and in very dangerous condition near a public footpath. The space which the canopy covers is used for outdoor activities and events including weddings.A branch has already fallen and hit one of the villagers. We need to remove the tree from site.Some of the main trunk once made safe will be kept in situ for ecology purposes. Also a sapling will be planted as a replacement.We have met with Nick Jones MCC TPO Officer and County Council Tay Bromfield on site and agreed to the dangerous condition of the tree it is best removed.
