We are undertaking some works for Corfe Mullen Town Council give us a wave if you see us 👋
🌳 Looking after Corfe Mullen’s trees for generations to come 🌿
From Monday 5 October 2026, specialist arboricultural contractors will be carrying out carefully planned tree management works across several Corfe Mullen Town Council sites.
The works follow the Council’s independent three-yearly Tree Risk Assessment 2026, which assessed 156 individual trees and 23 tree groups across Springdale Road Open Space, Corfe Mullen Recreation Ground, the Cemetery, Allotments, Towers Way Green Space and Henbury View Play Area.
The survey found that the vast majority of trees are in good condition. A small number have been identified for management to help keep our public spaces safe, healthy and accessible.
🌱 Safety and biodiversity together
The Council is committed to protecting Corfe Mullen’s natural environment alongside maintaining public safety. Wherever it is safe and appropriate, trees that need to be removed will be retained as standing habitat poles or monoliths, providing valuable habitats for insects, birds and other wildlife.
Deadwood and timber may also be retained on site where appropriate, helping to create natural habitats and support local biodiversity.
🌳 Planting for the future
For every tree removed as part of these essential safety works, replacement saplings will be planted, helping to maintain and enhance Corfe Mullen’s tree stock for future generations.
Temporary access restrictions may be required at some locations while the works are carried out safely.
Thank you to residents and visitors for your understanding while this important work takes place.
Together, we’re helping to keep Corfe Mullen safe, green and full of life. 💚🌳
