"They are symbolic of Haringey's short-sighted maintenance policy - had the crowns been regularly trimmed and contained in size then the root systems would not have grown, and the split in the centre tree could have been prevented - but to save…"

"Any one of these trees would be enough to invalidate my household insurance policy. I think they should all go , perhaps to be removed to the far end of the hundred acre field where trees of such size belong

"Hi Paul
Thanks for the post.
Personally I don't like the large trees in front of the library (they block off the face of one of the finest sixties buildings in London) but, if one of them is to go then it should be for the right reason! If it…"

Barking up the Wrong Tree again?
This evening on the way past the Central Library I noticed that a sign had been placed on one of the three very large trees outside the main body of the building explaining that it was to be removed because it was continuing to cause damage to the pavement and other solutions had proved useless.

Cranford Way London Concrete Factory - here we go again?

I asked Haringey to investigate and…See More

Paul Soper replied to Adrian Essex's discussion Stroud Green might move to Tottenham
"It is and it isn't - Stroud Green geographically could be added to an Islington consituency but us residents of Hornsey Vale would be just as angry as having to join Tottenham!"

Paul Soper replied to Adrian Essex's discussion Boundary Changes for Stroud Green - is it part of Tottenham
"I think there is a difference between Labour and Conservative submissions to the boundary commission over Constituency restructuring to the comments made on the consultation. This may not be so but you can't find these supposedly secret…"
Paul Soper replied to Adrian Essex's discussion Stroud Green might move to Tottenham
