Tree crashes onto second home months after neighbour almost killed by tree fall

A tree has fallen onto a second home in the same residential park in the space of a few months. Judith Adams from Blackpill, Swansea, was left terrified when the tree hit the roof of her park home during Storm Noa winds — three months after another tree crashed through her neighbour's roof.

The second tree fell at 1.15pm on Wednesday, hitting Mrs Adams' bungalow roof in Mill Gardens Residential Park. It did not appear to cause any damage as its impact was softened by a utility pole and wires, but 83-year-old Mrs Adams was left "distraught" by the shock, said her daughter Claire Richards.

Mrs Adams lives five doors away from Maureen Edwards, 71, whose roof was shattered in January by a falling tree which only just missed the part of the sofa where she was sitting. "If I'd been another couple of inches over I would have been dead," said Mrs Edwards at the time.
