Pembroke The Green

These trees on Court Terrace are said by Richard Staden to be"not in public view" and as they are on private property he will not give them Tree Protection Order protection, the largest twice as high has recently been cut down.

Pembroke Mill Pond

Pembroke Mill pond is a Local Nature Reserve, it is one of the best bits of Pembroke. This shows the existing pond margin after development
planning permission was given on the strict undertaking that a strip of vegetation was to be left at the pond margin for wildlife. This shows the richness of the wildlife.This shows the Development after a site visit at which the developer said he could not sell the houses without a "view". Now the house has been sol d the new owner has treated the buffer strip with total weedkiller.
Theis shows the trees cut down by Andrew Dowling of Arbaid.
This is what it should look like teeming with wildlife. Anywhere else in the UK this would be treasured as a tourist asset.
WHERE IS THE CONSERVATION AREA ENFORCEMENT OFFICER FROM PCC.
WHEN WILL ACTION BE TAKEN TO ENFORCE THE PLANNING CONDITIONS

Trees behind St Annes Crescent Pembroke

We asked Richard Staden to place TPO's on these remaining trees, the largest was felled in the last weeks. He said trees in private gardens cannot be given TPO's. We asked for the trees opposite the Bush Filling Station to be given TPO's but he said that this was unnecessary.
We have many outstanding questions about TPO's unanswered.
Trees according to him are not subject to TPO's if on private land and TPO's are unnecessary on public land. Why have a TPO Officer. What about the Devon House site the Tudor House site and Rocky Park.

This site has outline planning permission for a vast marina fronted by five storey blocks of flats. Let us hope that the depression stops this . The flats will be a wall from left to right and include the Martello Tower Fort.
