Another protest over tree lopping


The lopping of trees at Whalley station goods yard


was again discussed by Clitheroe Rural Council on Mon­ day.


_______________ Some time ago the


Council complained strongly about the manner in which the trees had been chopped, complaining that almost bare stumps had been left. A letter was considered on


Monday from the Divisional Planning Officer saying that the County Forestry Officer


had- now looked at the trees and reported -that the manner ol tree lopping was unfortu­ nate because it would only aggravate the nuisance about which complaint had been


made. A more amenable and lasting


effect could have been achieved if instead of topping all the trees behind the almshouses and leaving a large gap in the tree belt, . the owners had, after selecting for retention two trees in suitable positions and with crowns large enough to prevent a large gap being left, cut off at ground level all


been topped. The -two selected trees could


the other trees which had


then have had their lower crowns pruned, allowing more


light to come -in without spoil­


ing the outlook. Tliere was obviously a case


for the removal of some tree cover from behind tire alms­ houses, but it was possible that the damage might still have occurred even if the trees had been covered, by a Tree Preser­ vation Order. It was unfor­ tunate that more regard was not paid -to the amenity aspect in carrying out the work. The only further action

which appeared appropriate was to fell the stumps that


were left. It was strongly recom­


mended to the Railway authorities that they should plant a bank, where the trees have been lopped. with


Berberis Aquifolium (Mahonia) at 5 ft. square spacing with a line of yew trees along the top


of the bank, which would eventually ac-t as a partial


screen if development took place in the future on the now derelict goods yard. The Council again decided


to write to the Railway authorities protesting in strong terms against the man­ ner in which the trees were treated. Agreement was reached


with the Divisional Planning Officer’s report and it was decided to stress that the remedial measures suggested


should be carried out.
