I'm sorry but what IS going on?? one of the lovely things about where we live is the wonderful parks and trees (and tree lined streets) There seems to be a determined effort by the council to, without redress, hack about with the trees, regardless of whether it is necessary, and with no regard to wildlife. As far as I am aware, our local councillors have received a load of old waffle regarding the decisions taken, quoting external consultants - who I suspect (and I could be completely wrong) may also be responsible for making a complete hash of pollarding many of the boroughs exiting mature trees. Barry road is a marvellous example, however i must add that many roads in dulwich village have had their trees mullered as well. I suspect the council is hedging its bets in getting rid of as many mature trees as possible to as to prevent insurance claims. This has been mooted before, but a lack of response has been overwhelming. I have had not response from my emails to the council direct. I think (tho cannot be sure) that others have also been unanswered. This makes me suspicious. Yes I have had a glass of wine, but this has been rumbling on for months now, without a proper explanation or reassurance from the council.
