The overhanging trees were reported to the Parish Council and NKDC mid May. Both deny any responsibility for maintenance. The lower branches have been cut back by local residents frustrated about the lack of maintenance are being unable to walk over the footbridge without being hit in the face by low tree branches. This evening a large tree branch has fallen causing the footbridge to the recreation area to be impassable.
