Over the past 3 days I have seen men in high viz coats walking around the proposed land for building. I am sure I saw Skippy talking to them on Tuesday, are they about to start work?. ( Had a fire going yesterday maybe they are just drying out the land!) |

wheelaman123 not me talking to them, your eyes are as bad as mine, hahahaha the trees are being planted lower down than the proposed building land I think. |

Hi Skippy! eyes not that bad, saw the new trees that have been planted this morning. |

The land has been purchased by a local businessman and international sporting ground/pitch expert. He is having 10,000 willow trees planted which on maturity will be used to make cricket bats. Now that’s a new industry for the growing town and something else for Silsden to brag about. |

quoteits not april 1st yet, presume this is a wind up? Not at all gingo, in the right conditions willow will grow 10` a year. They can be harvested for bio fuel in 3 – 4 years when they can be 40` tall. They would have enough girth to cut for willow bats in 10 to 14 years. What would we do without "Wikipedia"? |
