We have now bought more land for planting trees. This is the field that runs from the Scotlandwell access to Bishop Hill - you know the one, it's got the styles. The Woodland Trust have raised enough funds to cover acquisition and costs for basic access works, tree planting and maintenance over the first five years. The purchase was finalised on 31 October 2008. The actual design of the woodland and access to it will have a large input from the local community and there will be publicity about this early in the new year - watch this space for details. We expect tree planting will take place in 2009 at the earliest. This land is oor land!
