HISTORIC AND BOTANIC GARDEN BURSARY SCHEME - STRENGTHENING THE UK'S HORTICULTURAL HERITAGE


Veteran Tree Management

Veteran Tree Management

Perspectives on habitat and risk management:

A series of three one-day seminars by

Neville Fay & Ted Green

www.treeworks.co.uk

This series of one day courses will provide a good understanding of the management issues surrounding veteran and ancient trees found in historic garden sites. The morning will be spent indoors looking at illustrations and case studies. The afternoon will be spent outdoors looking at the mature trees on site and discussing issues surrounding their biodiversity value and management. This course should appeal to all garden staff managing veteran and ancient trees.

A registration fee of £25 will be payable on confirmation of a place (cheques made payable to 'English Heritage'). HBGBS bursary funding is available to support your attendance. Please note: Refreshments will be provided but in order to keep the costs of this event down we would advise you to bring your own packed lunch.

 

Feedback from previous Master Classes

"The course was met with huge acclaim by all who attended. People were really pleased to have the opportunity to speak with Neville Fay and Ted Green directly and found their approach really practical. I cannot recommend this course highly enough."

"I would just like to say what a fantastic day it was yesterday. Ted and Neville delivered a brilliant class and we also had a short tour of Croxteth Park which was enjoyable to say the least."

Roland Jones, Tree and Landscape Officer
