“Cashel has been here before. Once part of the Rowardennan Estate, it was purchased by the National Land Fund for public benefit and passed to the Forestry Commission to manage before being sold by the Thatcher government. The cycle is now being repeated: private, public, private, public, private. What is land for? The Cashel Trustees are now proposing to retain a core woodland are but have not said who or what the land is for. How about using the land to demonstrate what support is needed from government if native woodland is to deliver public benefit?”
