Three recently planted cherry trees have been vandalised in Walker's Field, in the Moorside area of Bury.
It follows an incident at Peel Brow in Ramsbottom, when four out of five trees were snapped in half just one day after they were planted.
Councillor Alan Quinn, cabinet member for the environment, said: “Yet again, mindless neanderthals have vandalised our precious newly planted trees. We need to plant 10,000 more trees just to keep pace with the those we are losing due to Ash Die Back. Our trees clean the air, provide habitat to diverse species and take up the rain that can lead to floods.”
Anyone with information about the vandalism can report it to the council: www.bury.gov.uk or 0161 253 5353.
