Description

Prince Charles, Prince of Wales has been telling conservationists at the headquarters of the National Trust that there is a lot more work to be done to repair the damage caused in last October’s hurricane. Over a quarter of a million trees were destroyed on National Trust land alone, including the seven oaks of Sevenoaks in Kent - and Charles makes reference to the vandals who have destroyed the replacement trees. Report by Peter Russell.
