Ash dieback

Scientific evidence suggests ash trees are ‘fighting back’ against a deadly disease.

The National Trust say the trees potentially pose a risk to the public if they become weak and fall.

Trees are cut back to combat ash dieback, which is caused by a fungus and arrived in the UK in 2012.

Bristol City Council is allocating £2.8m for work on up to 4,000 trees infected with ash dieback.

A new 3.7km path has been created for visitors to explore the historic woodland and meadows.

The council warned trees affected by ash dieback could "fall with very little warning".

The council says it is felling hundreds of trees to prevent ash dieback and elm disease spreading.

A lead ranger says ash dieback has "devastated" parts of a National Trust estate.
