Six hundred trees to be planted as part of nationwide initiative to bring more precious woodland into cities
A scrap of ground, the size of a tennis court, beside a river in Bristol is being transformed into a “tiny forest” featuring 600 trees as part of a nationwide initiative to bring more precious woodland into cities.
The area, on a plateau next to the River Trym in Southmead, will be one of a string of such projects across the UK featuring trees ranging from mighty oaks to birch, elder, blackthorn and guelder rose.
