I was talking last night with a cop who lives in my village and attended the scene.He says the freshly severed tip of the conifer is very close to the take off point,within the grounds of the hall and not on the western side of the A143 where the aircraft impacted.
This article on the Daily Mails website, included several photos;

One photo, titled “a sheared tree branch near the crash scene” shows the broken top of a conifer.
This conifer is located in a fairly dense copse, on the east side of the A143, and is about 70’ from the road.
The broken section is approximately 20’ long, and the remaining ‘stump’ is still around 30’ tall.
I note the trunk has sheared at a point well below the height of the other trees closely surrounding it.
The X marks the approximate location of this conifer, Are there any others?
