Ash Dieback Disease.

Been hearing alot about this on TV and in the papers of late but only just really started to take note of actually how serious a problem we're facing. Having wiped out 90% of Ash trees in Denmark it has now been found in Ash trees in this country which could spell disaster for some of our most beautiful woodland in places like the Peak District and the Wye Valley. There's alot of articles starting to appear online and I think its important for everyone to take note of what to look out for because this could turn into another Dutch Elm disease but this time the loss could be even more devastating. For further reading and to see what to look out for have a look at the following links-
