Tree felling delayed again after protests
The felling of trees in Falmouth has been delayed again after protests by campaigners. Dozens of protestors gathered in the street to obstruct the operation and sang a modified Trelawney, with some people obstructing the operation by climbing the trees. Deb Newman, from campaign group Stop the Chop, accused Cornwall Council of "acting under their own laws" after plans to remove three lime trees from Trewlawny Road were announced on Monday. Cornwall Council had said ecologists had found "no evidence" of nesting birds or bats and "there is no legal requirement for a formal ecology report". The council previously said the trees were due to be removed because the roots were causing damage to the pavement and road as well as a nearby property. They were first expected to be cut down on 17 March but the operation was delayed following an intervention from police. Ms Newman told BBC Radio Cornwall: "I think what we are seeing here is a council acting under their own laws and are refusing to be accountable to the people who put them there. "We had no idea people would climb the trees and we were concerned, but it's a measure of how how much people care about them." Follow BBC Cornwall on X, Facebook and Instagram.
