Trees on the Coppice.
 

Is it possible that the view from the top of the Coppice will be allowed to go if the trees growing around the place are not cut back? Can't imagine that happening! :confused::confused::confused:

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Just ran up for a look :D you could be right !!!

I enjoy a walk up there to look at the view and take the children now as well.

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Yes I agree and they are not very attractive trees are they?

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

The trees are another glorious cock up by those that know best.:rolleyes:

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

There certainly needs to be some thinning out of these trees.

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Doubt very much if that need will be met, they will cite cost to wriggle out of it i think.

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

There has been a lot of money spent on the Coppice area over the last few years including tree management work.

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Haven't Prospects been working up there?

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

looking at how it is, thats been another waste of money.:rolleyes:

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

I doubt that "providing a view of Accy" is high on the agenda for them.

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Maybe they think that Accrington should be hidden from view.
Maybe the trees are about the best thing there is in Accrington.

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

I went up there earlier today, had a look out from my favourite viewing point and do you know?
I couldn't see the trees for the wood.

Maybe it's time we had a mini forest fire?

Now, don't laugh, There used to be a headache Called the Con Club, nothing could be done with that but once it was set afire demolition could go ahead, surely setting fire to wood is easier?

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

What a good idea!

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Marching on the Town hall to get the Coppice view back could be the right way!!!!

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Yeh aint presuming they would take any notice are yeh?

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

That place could burn as well then!!!

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Good luck with that, if you can prise 'em off the couch & away from the stupid box & their daily fix of "cake dancing", "X talentless" and the like, you'd not get them past the Ale house or McFried chicken!

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Yeh could ask Lancsdave about trying to get sense outa the council.;)

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Yes they have but so have other groups

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

We could all sit on our backsides and do nothing but some people are busy helping the council raise money to improve our areas. Have you been up and seen the new paths that have encouraged a lot more people to use the area?

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Not for about 3 yrs,wasn,t impressed last time and its hard work fer missus at our age fer next to nowt,:rolleyes:

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

Good paths all the way up. Prospects used to have one of LCC's off road type mobility scooters you could borrow but I think they have taken it back because I've not seen it there for ages now

Re: Trees on the Coppice.
 

I noticed that the thread starter lives in st annes, the question I would ask him is, has he been up recently and what are his opinions of the new access points.
