More shame for CPS Homes as they attempt to fell trees – without permission to close road
Protestors and Councillor intervene to save trees – for now
Local residents prevented contractors for CPS Homes from felling trees in a conservation area in Canton today.

The developers had attempted to shut part of the road to carry out the destruction – but hadn’t received the approval of the council to do so.

Following an intervention by Cllr Ramesh Patel, CPS Homes contractors left the site.
