What do you like about Newborough Forest?

• Everything. Status Quo please. Shade in winter from gales and just as important, shade from sun in summer. Wildlife: buzzards meowing this morning! Fungi. Plants adapted to shade over 50 years. Above all PEACE and quietness. Not available in every day life.
• The unique link between forest and shore and the shelter from prevailing weather and sun.
• Pob dim sydd yna. Pic yr anifeiliaid.
• Everything. The animals.
• The trees, the animals and everything else.
• Peaceful places
• Trees!
• Diversity of species. Open glades. Bird life. Shelter in high winds.
• We like the trees for climbing on and jumping and riding. And making dens in the forest.
• Trees absorb CO2 and give off oxygen. This is very important to me.

• Too many Corsican pine with no understorey in certain areas.
• When there is rubbish on the ground.
• Dog dirt!

What would you like to see changed in Newborough Forest?

• More hardwoods and birds and flowers
• Plant more broadleaves in Newborough
• No clearfelling
• Areas that have recently been planted should be left to grow
• More diversity. More open glades. Less gravel roads
• More benches. More bins. More squirrels! We love having fun and it’s great as it is!
• Slow transformation to Atlantic dune woodland by replanting thinned trees with Scots pine and where appropriate oak, ash, alder, etc.
• MORE TREES!
• None. Just leave it alone.
• I wouldn’t like changes because it is lovely. Why do they want to cut the forest down? They are being stupid.

• If trees are felled from Area 2 what will stop gale force winds from going up to Pen Lon?
• Broadleaves to be planted before pines are felled in Area 2.
• It is a lovely vision all year round!!! x 2
• DO NOT CUT THE TREES!!!
• The vision is lovely winter and summer, day and night 24/7
• The trees are beautiful x 2
