Found in an Ash!

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

How does one 'keep clear' of a big tree in their yard? Move to the Gobi Desert?

 

A precautionary approach sounds like a defensive approach,

 

which is not always defendable.

 

I hispidus is sluggish in oak and gives plenty of warning, ime. Yes in ash it's worth a closer, balanced look at what is, with less of the 'what if'.

 

Why would a TO refuse to allow reduction? Did they apply to take 90% off?

 

 

90% off, no not if he was working to BS 3998 post 2010!

By precautionbary I just mean don't tempt fate by camping under the afffected limb.
