Letter to the Editor

Number 73 Argyle Street, probably one of the last road-to-sea sections, was recently sold.

By this time it was Saturday and the chainsaws started very early. I called the council and they said they would look into it. By Saturday afternoon the largest tree was gone. I had a call on Monday to say they were going to investigate. Yes the tree was on the protected-schedule and they would be passing the case onto a council inspector.

Unbelievable that people can still get away with this. Wonder what, if anything, the council will do now?

I was asked to move when taking photos last month. I live locally, but would like to remain anonymous.
