Recently, whilst driving to work along the course of the former runway at the disused WW2 airfield at RAF Deopham, I was very annoyed at the removal of ALL of the bramble scrub and the uprooting and destruction of a large Sallow and some fine old Hawthorn trees/bushes. These formerly beautiful habitats were the homes to breeding Yellowhammers, Linnets, and Whitethroats. This 'criminal' act was wholly unnecessary, especially in an area which has a vast, exposed landscape with little cover for wildlife.
All I can say is WHY?
