Bid made to protect woodland trees amid campaign against Dumbarton housing development

Woodland trees at the centre of a community campaign against a Dumbarton housing development look set to be given protected status.

Councillors will be asked to agree that a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) is made to protect trees around Brucehill Cliffs at a planning meeting tomorrow (Wednesday).

It follows concerns by local groups over plans for 85 homes, which they say will see the loss of mature trees along the clifftop and have adverse knock-on effects to the adjacent Havoc meadows nature conservation area.
