Some damage was repairable, but most irreparable. Homes were left without power.<\/p>\n
The wind blew at almost 100mph in places and is estimated to have caused \u00a33 million worth of damage to National Trust properties.<\/p>\n
Tens of thousands of trees fell.<\/p>\n
Here is a photo of 2 conifers that did not fall in the recent Storm Arwen. However their root plates were moved in the storm, compromising their foundational structural stability; and one of these conifers lay against the other.<\/p>\n
Removal of these trees was inevitable.<\/p>\n
Since Storm Arwen we observed many trees that had NOT fallen but were structurally compromised. Trees like this should be removed due to their inevitability of falling in the future.<\/p>\n
