    We met on site with David Cunningham on 18 June and discussed how the area has been quite neglected over the years, and we have a lot of work to do to try and clear some of the trees to open it back up again. We will be keeping the more mature trees and trying to create an environment that retains the important habitat for wildlife while removing some of the self-set trees. Although the amount listed on this form might seem quite high, it is a small proportion of the trees on the land which must be well over 750, and we intent to carry out the work in stages over the next couple of years at times which will not harm wildlife such as nesting birds. None of the trees are subject to TPOs, and also are not near or easily viewed from a public highway or right of way. Trees we wish to fell are listed on the attached plan as: 1. Self-set Ash 2. Self-set Ash suffering from die-back 3. Self-set Ash 4. Self-set Ash 5. Hawthorn 6. Ash suffering from die-back 7. Ash 8. Alder 9. Sycamore 10. Sycamore 11. Hawthorn 12. Ash 13. Sycamore 14.
