North Lincolnshire planners have given approval for the felling of a a Holly tree within Brigg's conservation area at Eastfield, on the corner of Albert Street and Bigby Road.
They have also granted permission to erect an extension to offices (with associated car parking) at the Carers' Centre, on Redcombe Lane, and approval for the building of a single storey rear conservatory at 8 Horstead Avenue.
Some folks regard felling a holly tree is unluckly. As an evergreen, associated with Christmas, it it sometimes thought to symbolise eternal life and the supernatural.
ReplyDeleteOn a pratical perspective, it's a pity the felling couldn't wait until after the nesting season.
Some poor little dickie-birds will be made homeless!
