mission 2

You have now sourced some additional information including looking at available aerial photographs and have been able to get an accurate mapping of the extent of planting (between purple line and road). The scheduled area is outlined in red. The field has been subject to cultivation to a depth of 25cm. Planting has been done by hand with two-year-old whips and tree tubes put over with a bamboo cane to secure. A new fence separates the planted area from the rest of the field.

LEVEL 1/2

What impact may the works have had on significance?

NEXT

There is a major impact

There is A limited impact

There is a medium impact

That's Right!

There is limited impact from planting as most disturbance was within the plough soil. The main impact was from fenceposts that will extend beyond the plough soil by about 30cm.

mission 3

The owner has admitted to undertaking the planting and has offered to remove the planting.

LEVEL 1/2

What response do you think may be appropriate?

HE community resolution

prosecution

warning letter

THAT's Right!

The response would be a HE Community Resolution. If they admit an offence has occurred then a HE Conditional Caution route is achievable with a condition being the removal of the trees. If the conditional caution isn’t accepted then prosecution possible, but would need to consider public interest and other routes for reversal.If the owners did not engage and did not support the removal, you could go through the Forestry Commission as the planting may meet the criteria for Environmental Impact Assessments (Forestry) Regulations.

LEVEL 2/2

good job!

EARTHWORK SITE• Greater harm to significance will have occurred through physical harm when planting and harm legibility of monument. • Still seek reversal as above to achieve suitable route through HE Community Resolution or HE Conditional Caution. • Trees would need to be cut at ground level and given stump herbicide treatment.

continue

TREES PRESENT FOR 7 YEARS • Structural roots of trees will have exceeded depth of ploughsoil and will be impacting buried remains. Greater harm to significance. • Still seek reversal as above to achieve suitable route through HE Community Resolution or HE Conditional Caution. • Trees would need to be cut at ground level and given stump herbicide treatment. • BONUS POINT – Class consent for cultivation gone … can discuss ongoing management as a potential public benefit (mitigating) outcome such as minimal tillage cultivation (likely to include the whole field) or grass strip (will need fence and livestock so some repeated harm from renewal of fence).
