The residents of Moness housing estate in Aberfeldy have put together a petition for the removal of tall pine trees along Moness Avenue and Moness Crescent.

Over 100 local residents signed the petition and many more are thought to be in favour of action to remove a dark wall of mature trees that are stopping some people from getting TV signal.When Storm Arwen hit last year, 20 or so trees fell in the high winds.

Residents moved their parked cars away and feared the pines would topple on garages positioned close by.Recently the locals recently presented the four pages of names to John McKenzie, owner of Moness Resort.The trees stand on land belonging to his holiday resort where there is an indoor pool and wedding marquee.
