Council source2 self-seeded ash trees (one early-mature and the other semi-mature) increasingly looming over the garden and block a considerable amount of light from a pond and greenhouse area. Given both trees are showing signs of ash dieback and reside at the top of a steep bank, there's added concern they will start to shed even larger limbs and cause damage. We seek permission to fell both trees and to replant the area with mixed native species that can be managed to maintain a height below 5 metres
