Thundersley could lose 150-year-old tree
A 150-year-old tree within the grounds of Thundersley Primary School may have to be felled, after insurers told the school that roots may have caused cracks in a neighbouring property.
Head teacher Emma Dawson says pupils are passionate about the environment, and the school hopes to find a solution for everyone.
