Default Tree probs caused by Ivy

In article , Paul

Does anyone know if mature ivy develop aerial roots when attached to trees ?
My farm labourer neighbour, had to pull down a 50 yr old, ivy strangled oak.
He said it wasn't worth severing the base of mature ivy, for the above
reason.
What does the team think ?

Been quite a hefty and interesting thread on uk.rec.gardening on this
very subject.

What was the verdict urglers?
