Can anyone help identify what is attacking our tree? It's absolutely covered and I'm not sure what to do! Done some searching and struggling to find anything similar, which is probably because I haven't a clue about trees!
Thanks in advance!

Hello Stuart ; your tree seems badly infested with what look like Whiteflies ; https://www.almanac.com/pest/whiteflies ;
This may be worth a read .
I think it's Ash bark scale insect - Pseudochermes fraxini - it is found on various different trees.

Not sure what you can do about it tho'

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Didn't spot that one Dove ; how on earth do you combat something like that ?
Thanks guys - at least I know what to look into now!
