We’ve been made aware that one of the original birch trees at the orchard has been pruned within the last couple of days. While the cuttings have been left on site, which is helpful for the habitat, pruning during a drought isn’t ideal and can place additional stress on the tree.

We’d like to kindly remind everyone that the orchard is a community space, and any tree or sapling management should be carried out through the Parish Council or our volunteer groups. Unauthorised pruning can risk damage to young trees, including the newly planted saplings.

If you have concerns about the trees or feel something needs attention, please get in touch with us so we can arrange appropriate care.

Thank you for helping us look after this shared green space for everyone in the village.
