Oakham School, The Oakham Chain Saw Massacre, Half Term
Oakham School were last month granted planning approval to demolish and
build new buildings by a delegated planning officer.
The matter did go before Oakham Town Council who raised no objections.
The Tree Warden Cllr Joyce Lucas raised no concerns stating "Oakham School
always do a lovely job"
This week Oakham School started that good work by chopping down many
healthy trees on site,
I don't object to the school building new rooms, but I do hate to see trees
killed off in the process.
I trust the Tree warden and Rutland County Council keeping an eye on those
fine trees on site that have TPO's attached to them.
This fine tree has gone, I was passing and took this photograph showing just
the lower branches removed.
The two house behind are to be demolished.
