The developer of a major Ruddington housing project is causing "unnecessary upset" by failing to honour a promise to have trees planted between existing houses and new ones. The Fairham Green development off Wilford Road will contain 167 houses and the company behind the project agreed to have a full row of trees planted along its southern boundary.
The developers, Bloor Homes, gave its full backing to the idea last July, with the trees due to be planted in a narrow gap between existing homes and the boundary fencing for the new development. The trees would have stretched around 223 metres along the southern boundary and would have been planted in honour of the late Queen as part of the Queen's Green Canopy project (QGC).
But a letter has now been written to the directors of Bloor Homes after residents spotted fencing being built in the gap where the trees were supposed to be going. The letter, signed by Rushcliffe's MP and three borough councillors, calls on Bloor Homes to move the installed fencing so that the gap for trees can be reinstated.
