My name is Phil and I'm the Environment Officer for the Useburn Trust. This year we've successfully raised in partnership with the Useburn Farm. Some of the money that's going to enable us to do some improvements in the green spaces in the Useburn. This is going to be funded by the northeast local enterprise partnerships, local growth fund. One of the things we're going to do is some quite extensive work in the woodland. The work we've got here in the Useburn Valley is a man-made woodland and that means that some of the things that would happen in a native woodland, particularly in ancient native woodland, just can't happen because there isn't the species diversity to allow certain processes to occur. People often get concerned about the removal of trees and think that that's a bad thing but actually sometimes it's necessary and it's necessary to get really good results. It's necessary for the health of neighbouring trees, it's necessary for the shrubs under those trees and also for ground level plants to come through. What we're dealing with now is really to stage one of the project which will start hopefully October and November of 2021 and that will involve the copposing, pollarding and felon of quite a number of trees throughout the upper section of the Useburn.
