Their contractors tidied up the tree noticed on 26th January over several campaigns and the latest campaign had left three chunks of branch - something more than a foot in diameter - lying at the foot of what was left of the tree. Not clear why they had been left, but some passing youth thought it would be fun to roll the chunks down the bank into the nearby stream, from where it might well prove harder to load them onto a lorry than might otherwise have been the case. Meantime they make a partial dam, perhaps good news for the kingfishers that one occasionally sees along the stream.
And then, down the southern end of Manor Green Road there are some new trees, not long planted and I imagine replacing mature trees for some conservatory reason or other. Today, I noticed that two of them have been neatly snapped off, presumably by inebriated youth leaving either the Cricketers or the Coopers, and altogether more irritating than a bit of log rolling. Just wanton destruction.
