HOLLY GATE A CUT TOO FAR

Today I was shocked to see a Holly tree that may have been planted when the Civic center (Pittwood house) was first opened in 1963 to see a chain saw cut it down, last week it was a Christmas tree that was cut down outside the reception, has all the Christmas Spirit gone out of this Council, I would not mind but was told by an officer last week that they would be taking out the over grown bushes at the front of Pittwood and that the holly tree would not be touched. When I went to the Chief executive to look in to the matter I was told SORRY we made a mistake but will plant a new holly bush (MAYBE 50 YEARS OF GROWTH GONE IN A MATTER OF SECONDS)
