All the Ash in the shaw is being felled as Horsham Council have advised that Ash dieback is present. This appears to be a safety issue as the wood was intended to be a public amenity and the Kilnwood Vale people did not want to be sued for injuries from falling trees or parts thereof. It has dawned on most that the disease cannot be controlled by any feasible action.
