An appeal has been issued to West Dunbartonshire Council to save a 200-year-old tree which could be “bulldozed” as plans to redevelop the former ExxonMobil site continue.
The local authority plans to purchase the land at Sheepfold, owned by Susan Dick, to develop a relief road to the former ExxonMobil site in Bowling which is subject to renovation work to include storage, distribution, industrial, business and office space.
Ms Dick, who owns a pony therapy business, has been asking West Dunbartonshire Council for a suitable piece of land to re-home her ponies and transfer the burial ground before work on the relief road progresses.
