Anyone fancy saving some other trees? help desperately needed.
22.02.2007 14:14
In Salisbury this week, trees are about to be felled any day now to make way for the new Council Offices development and ridiculous glass office extension, that will not only be costly to buils but very bad for the environment and CO2 levels.
This will destroy forever a
WALLED GARDEN THAT’S MORE THAN 300YEARS OLD, with two 18th Century walls, many beautiful big trees aging from 50-150 years, and inside the garden is a Victorian fountain at the centre of SALISBURYS ONLY PUBLIC POND!!
Tree’s to be felled include:
Hornbeam, huge triple trunked tree, estimated 80years but grown up from an even older stump that’s possibly 150 years old. Also home to soon to be nesting bats.
Sweet Chestnut, huge, about 70years old
Goats Willow
Pussy Willow
Sycamores
Hawthorn
3 Yew trees
3Apple trees
Prunus.
Wellingtonia
There are also two other Hornbeams, one already cut down to a stump and the other half felled.
Also an Oak and an Atlas Cedar / Cedar Atlantian will alledgedly be “saved”, but we cant see that they will remain unscathed as they are right in the centre of what will be the main works acces to the soon-to-be building site.
The project seemed to be on hold, but now they are pushing ahead to fell the tree’s JUST IN CASE the development project goes ahead. It’s a great shame, as this garden is very old, more than 300 years and has fondly been known to Salisbury’s children as “The Secret Garden” for generations untold.
please please come and help if you can, there are only two of us here and they are going to fell the trees any day now!! If there were more the campaign would be very successful as has full public support, theyre just all lame and wont be motivated to do anything about it!!
thankyou
