<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>I totally agree. There is an elaborate notice up telling the public about ‘honey fungus’ found the trees along there ‘ and confirmed by X rays’ so felling is afoot. This is Oviatt Hamm again.<BR>

I just returned from speaking to Kate Klinck in Alpha Road. She arrived back at work in King’s School to find that a whole clump of conker trees had been felled. Yes, you guessed it. Oviatt Hamm had advised they were diseased . She didn’t say they had this moth infestation. Kate and the staff looked at the wood to find it was completely sound. I think four trees were felled.<BR>
