Another old friend who we will soon have to wave goodbye to. This great specimen on the village green is an elm tree which has failed to stir itself from last winter\u2019s cold and no doubt will soon be set for removal by the Community Council. It is still popular with the pigeons, doves and Jackdaws so enjoy its wonderful form while it is still with us.<\/p>\n
