Restocking after Ash Dieback removals

 As part of the process to apply for a Felling Licence, we've had to specify our restocking strategy for the felled trees. This is what we propose.


Native Broadleaf     55%
Holly Species          10%
Hazel                       20%
Hawthorn                15%


The felling licence is for individual trees rather than clear felling (removing all in one exercise). We'll monitor the health of each tree before  deciding to fell, except the roadside trees subject to the Council demand. After felling a tree we'll plant a couple of whips, protected by tree guards, mulching the base of the tree, and checking  progress periodically.
