Tree crushes garden fence after storm

A council was warned about a tree that ended up toppling into a garden during Storm Claudio, residents have claimed.

It crashed into a garden on Hungerford Close in Sandhurst, Berkshire, but previously damaged three houses when a branch came off in September.

Debbie Smith, whose garden and fence were damaged by the fallen tree, said Bracknell Forest Council had been "unhelpful from the beginning". 

The authority said it had needed more information before making a decision.
