We're working with Woodland Trust to get a Plantation on Ancient Woodland Sites (PAWS) restoration project underway in Argyll. The first stage is to talk to the woodland owners and managers about PAWS so that we can work out what is possible. Looking at woods is important too, and this picture shows an oak tree picked out on a visit. The sitka spruce behind the tree is crowding the oak, but the biggest threat is the young spruce that is growing up through the canopy of the oak: this young growth will be bad news for the middle aged oak.
