Stirling Drive

Residents in a section of Stirling Drive have been reporting problems with the Scots Pine trees on land owned by the VA.  The issues include rapid growth taking light from windows, heavy cones causing damage to cars below and excessive amounts of needles and pollen.  

We have obtained specialist advice which has told us that these trees were not ideal for this location and that the only practical solution is to fell and replace the trees.  We have been investigating the options and the costs involved and will be consulting with the residents that are affected.  We recognise that the street scene is important and valued by residents so are very keen to achieve a solution that satisfies all residents.
