Ash die back removal

[Bren.]

Ash coppice showing symptoms.

Sorry it's not a better picture. I'll see if I can find some better ones.

Notice the dead section in the stem, with apparently healthy tissue above.

They are all infected, all small diameter with a twisted top. Felled my first one yesterday that that had the rotten black core like slime useless as firewood. Fell quick do not leave standing as they rot so no good as fuel.

Doubt if they are anywhere near. I think the FC have been overwhelmed with inquiries and samples, requests for confirmation etc. I sent some photo's in over 18 months ago from north of Manchester and have never got a reply.

I've found one so far that's not got it. Then again were felling it in a few weeks.
