National Trust tree work in Plaistow


Plaistow village Green – Horse Chestnut. 

As I am sure you have noticed, there is a very poorly looking Horse Chestnut on the green on the Common House Lane frontage. The National Trust has got permission from CDC for felling, which will happen on 2nd March. 

Ash trees within the hedge line by Winterton Hall

Due to Ash Dieback these trees will be removed. This work was highlighted by the Parish Council in 2021 within a tree survey. The ADB is advanced enough to meet the NT's threshold for removal and they want to remove their risk, particularly considering the proximity to the Preschool garden. These trees are due to be removed in the next couple of weeks. The NT will liaise with the Preschool directly. 8 pedunculate oaks Quercus robur will be planted within the hedge line as replacements.
