    Crisis is probably abit strong a word, but nobody seems to be taking this seriously. I have spent the last 20 years managing this wood, and we were starting to get some decent saw logs. All of the timber is now stained with brown which means they are only good for firewood. The wood is approx 5Ha, and of that about 4Ha is now standing dead. With the open canopy the brambles are over head high which is making felling and extraction difficult, and needs alot of control(expense) to get the new trees established. The wood is no longer acting as a carbon sink, and the amount of water leaving the wood is definitively higher. Both of these have serious implications for the future, so maybe crisis is the right word.

    Once you go further east into Carmarthenshire Oak and Beech levels start to increase, but levels of Ash are still high there. The North part of Pembrokeshire has higher levels of Oak, but we are predominantly Ash and Sycamore down here.

    Its too long, and the tube section too thin. If it is bending with a small relatively vertical tree, it is not going to have the strength to push a back leaning tree which is want you want it to do. The idea is good, it just needs some refinement.

    For once not dying Ash, just a limb removal from over a garage.

    Here in west Wales after the storm in mid May, alot of trees turned brown, which was due to the storm carrying in salt laden air which burnt off the leaves. I don't know where stourhead is, and coastal proximity, but the very dry cold April and May may have been a factor particularly if the leaves/ needles were freshly emerged.

    Leylandii make the best bearers, some of mine are twelve years old, and have only just started to rot.

    That will cause traffic chaos, the mighty mendi plogs Jon tootling down the M5, stopping for a chat every now and then.

    Big tree week in west Wales. An Ash tree with Dieback, and pushing over a listed wall, and a Ganoderma infested beech.
