Because of the proximity of the proposed planting to a number of historical sites, a detailed archaeological examination of the area was required. This examination is now complete and the application is currently with the Forestry Inspectorate for consideration and recommendation in relation to the project. This should be complete within the next few weeks and a decision on the application will be given as soon as possible thereafter.
