[Discuss] trees

[Simon Norton]

Someone sent me a cutting from The Times of 24 Sept about someone who was
squatting in a (beech) tree in Irton, near Scarborough, in an effort to save it.
The tree had had a preservation order but this was lifted because a house owner
claimed it was undermining his drains.

Alas, research on the Internet (google "irton beech") reveals that the tree was
cut down a fortnight ago.
