  3. Can anyone help....? We have recently bought and moved into a property with a large horse chestnut tree To begin with as you can see from a number of the pictures attached, we may be suffering from Leaf mining moth. Does this look to be the case and can it please be confirmed that this does not affect its health in the long term? On a more serious note, having pulled away some ivy that had been growing around it's trunk, we discovered this weekend that there is a huge hole running deep into the trunk. There was old fungi growing inside. Once pulled out we discovered new fungi growing on the roof of the hole. Please see all attached photos along with one showing its size compared to my arm. Can anyone please advise what has caused this and what course of action needs to be taken. We are distraught at the idea of losing such an old and beautiful tree. This tree also has a protection order on it. (We appreciate that this is a fungi thread but are hoping someone may be able to help) Thank you
