No Respect: The Law of Unintended Consequences

Not satisfied with planting a Lime in Ashgrove Road, it seems Bristol City Council are intent on changing the entire character of the city.



Here we see a newly planted Ash in the majestic avenue of Limes in Kellaway Avenue.


And a newly planted Alder, also in Kellaway Avenue.

When we started campaigning for the replacement of all the trees being felled in Bristol we had no idea that we'd be having such a far-reaching and long-term impact on our Victorian Legacy.

We wonder if, in 100 years, we at Bristol Street Trees will be thanked for unwittingly changing all the avenues of single species of tree into mixed-up, random lines of virtually any and every tree species?

Hopefully our ancestors will blame the Council.
