430spider Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Apparently the council are now planning to fell a healthy avenue of trees on Western Road at Crookes after covering themselves in glory at Rustlings. These trees were planted after WW1 in memory of those former pupils of a nearby school who gave their lives in the conflict. This isn’t just about trees anymore, it’s about the type of city we want to live in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Council does this without taking note of expert advice to the contrary, plus residents wishes, it'll cause even more outrage than Rustlings Road. They'd better plan it out pretty stealthily too, as there'll be a lot more protestors as well as TV crews and national press in general. To be honest though, I don't think they'll do it.

andrejuan Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Are these trees being replaced with more suitable saplings? If so, these could also be dedicated to the same memory, job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
