Ash as nutrient?

Any advice on the benefits, or otherwise, of adding wood ash to beds
which are mulched with pinechips and other acidic clippings? I have lots
of ash from my winter fires and want to spread it over my beds. Good
idea? What nutrients, if any, would it contain? Would it alter the ph
balance? If so, up or down?
