Incapability

Somebody got the idea the trees on top of Lenny Hill had been cut to improve the views presumably told such by someone from the managers.

I'm pretty sure none of them has studied the aesthetics of landscapes so it's not been a Capability Brown style job. You can see the results from a long way away,

Certain trees have been left standing, and they look as if they have recently been among many more which have helped to shelter them.

Usually trees left isolated like this don't last long on hills subject to strong winds but as far as SWT is concerned why bother. They got some good chain-sawing done that day.
