Picture Tells Story

This one tells a story that should shame Peak District land managers.


At the top a treeless hillside devoid of interest.

In the foreground also treeless an ugly scar, a straight line cut across what's already an affront to the landscape, deliberately kept free from the complexityof nature and artificially reduced to a limited selection of vegetation that conforms to the prescription defined by the words "good agricultural condition".

A central section where nature has been left alone much preferred by the local wildlife just visible at the edge. In this large area that's the only bit with any decent wildlife and landscape value.

What do they have against trees?
