Description

Felling Licence Consultation - SM/Conservation Area. Minimal operations proposed, only to carry out felling for safety reasons and protection of the Scheduled Monument. As felling will not be evenly distributed, the operation has been changed to thinning with a small proportion of regeneration felling to account for the small coupes of ash that require action. RF coupes will not be restocked due to the location upon SM, therefore, operation is listed as deforestation (EIA not required as below threshold). Data via plota.co.uk
