Work is underway to remove a large willow tree from a Suffolk river.
The Bramford Open Spaces group shared that work is underway to remove a large willow tree which had fallen in the River Gipping near Fraser Road in the village.
The group looks after the County Wildlife Park and picnic area in the village as well as other open spaces.
It is being cleared by the Environment Agency flood response team, who manage water levels, flood alerts and warnings on the river.
The River Gipping Trust praised the group that work was underway on clearing the river.
Recently the trust warned of high E.coli levels in the river near Needham Market, with people warned to avoid contact with the water.
They recorded levels as high as 38,000 colony forming units per 100ml of water, which is 38 times the safe bathing-water threshold.
