It can be seen from the original photo that the tree had been pollarded in the past, so I'm sure if any preservation order was in place it would probably have been enforced, then. I don't think Tinky has any worries.
My most recent bargain day was due to 'achieving' the age of sixty - I had a free eye test, 25% discount off the resulting pair of glasses & then popped into the chemist to pick up my, now free, prescription. I'm currently filling in the form to get a further rebate on the glasses courtesy of my company 'health scheme' perk
