  Opposite the above address is the horse field and stables. In the field there are 30 (T1-T30) sycamore trees which are poisonous to horses and in the past the owners have had one die as a result from eating the seeds. for this reason they moved the horses to a neighbouring field which they rented but the owner is no longer willing to rent it to them so they need to go back to using their own field. These are self set sycamore trees that have been left to grow massively out of control for the last 30-40 years, the plan is to pollard each tree at around 5ft to allow them to still grow but not high enough so they blow the seeds all across the field. Also there is a mix of ash and sycamore (G1) as a hedge that hasn't been reduced for some years. This will be cut back to previous cuts to around 5-6ft.
