HS2 has been ordered to stop tree-felling at ancient woodland in the Chilterns after campaigners launched a landmark legal case against Natural England. Mark Keir brought the legal action on behalf of the Jones’ Hill Wood Earth Protectors after HS2 was allowed to fell 0.7 hectares of land at Jones Hill Wood, near Wendover, as part of its construction works. Natural England issued a licence to allow HS2 to carry out the tree-felling at the wood, which is home to the rare barbastelle bat, as well as a number of other protected species, such as noctule, brown long-eared, Natterers, common and soprano pipistrelle bat roosts, and ancient ecosystems.
