Sadly, one of the original trees planted had perished and we needed to remove it for safety reasons. Nothing is wasted though, the branches will be used as a dead hedge as part of our show garden at the Royal Windsor Flower Show‘.
Shinfield Parish Council would like to say thank you to all involved, we really do appreciate the time and effort keeping the orchard healthy.
