A licence for a selective felling in Galley Hill Wood, under which no trees with a butt diameter of less than nine inches are being felled, was issued in July, 1947, after the local authority had been consulted and had offered no objection. The authority subsequently asked that, despite the fact that it had made no Tree Preservation Order, certain trees should be left, and I understand that this request was to be discussed at a meeting between the various parties concerned yesterday.
