Macrocarpa Tree

The tree in the garden of the Parish Centre has been under observation for some time now as it is severely diseased. A Tree Surgeon has been examining it for ten years and with a recent second opinion, have concluded that it is two thirds dead! It now poses a potential danger to the surrounding area. Sadly, we have discerned that the only course of action is to remove the tree completely from the garden. It does not have a preservation order on it. This is obviously sad since it is a feature, but there is no other option given the deterioration and condition of the tree. However, it will mean that we can grass the garden so that there will be a better lawn which will serve well for Parish functions in the future.
