As the saying goes, "there's no smoke without fire" and there's no sawdust without chainsaws. On Saturday 20th March 2010 the landowner visited the wood with two workmen who were presumably unaware of any restrictions - a familiar tactic of Mr Jafari's. Shortly after they started chainsawing live wood along the river bank they were stopped by local people. This appears to be a blatant contravention of the Woodland Tree Preservation Order and a deliberate disturbance of protected species, particularly the Kingfishers. Blimey, all this in addition to the ongoing court case regards not removing the ugly portacabin. Safe public ownership is surely the only way to preserve this woodland and its wildlife as an important natural resource for the citizens of Bristol.
