Urban tree planting
Phase 7
February and March 2026
As part of the implementation of the strategy, it is proposed to deliver tree planting within identified borough wards during the coming winder planting season (Febriuary and March 2026). It is intended to plant a range of broadleaf and/or fruit trees o selected sites, whilst ensuring that the selected trees are suitable for each site.
These sites are:
- Bathpool Park
- Birchenwood Country Park
- Chesterton Recreation Ground
- Rear of Ellam's Place
- Station Walk
- Paris Avenue
- Queen Elizabeth Park
- Land off Bignall End Road
The proposed planting plans are available to download
Once planted, these sites will form part of an essential mosaic of local greenspace sites that will be protected for the benefit of nature recovery and carbon capture for the future and in time further carbon reduction opportunities on these sites will also be considered with community involvement.
