Those that have visited either of these two places recently may have noticed some colourful markings that have been placed on some trees, why and what is happening you may be asking?Nothing to worry about - no trees are being cut down !!
The Hamlets Council are in the process of producing a 5 Year Management Plan for both areas, this it to help protect the woodland and to enhance the wildlife, flora and fauna for everyone to enjoy in the future. The markings are to help identify particular trees and their locations
