I have been contacted by residents who are concerned about the tree felling taking place in Holly Wood (off the Queslett road) and part of the old St Margaret's site.
I have now been in touch with the Landscape artist looking after the site on behalf of Bovis Homes. They have informed me as part of a woodland managements agreement with the Walsall Planning department. A number of self setting Sycamore trees are being removed.
These are being replaced by Native English Trees and this should help the long term welfare of the woodland.
Well over a thousand trees have been planted as replacements although these for the main part are whips which are small and not easy to notice for some time. They are similar to a number that have been planted in the Queslett Nature Reserve.
I have had this confirmed by the Walsall Council Tree planning officer I have also asked however asked that the situation be monitored and care be taken with other plants in the woodland.
