Good point.
Each Winter we lose trees, (often aged, overgrown Hawthorns)
from unmanaged Ruislip hedgerows.
They are routinely overrun with Ivy,
whose leaves act like a sail in the wind,
and topple them over.I will ask LBH Green Spaces if they intend to prune the leaders on the
Yew saplings, to make them 'bush out'. If it hadn't ocurred to them.
I'll offer to do it, and deal with the Ivy at the same time.

I'd get the ivy removed from the trees.. I've seen it spread and destroy a young hedge.
