Features of a woodland with ash dieback are dead and dying trees, tree stumps, and dead branches. These features can all be seen in the photo which was taken near Eastbourne Youth Hostel.

Wood chip has been laid on the woodland path at this point though not along the entire length of the path. The wood chippings create a more level surface for bikers and walkers while also acting to stem the flow of water and suppress weeds. The wood chips may have come from trees which had ash dieback as this area, recently, had many such trees lying at the side of the path.
