A ROW of willow trees on Osney Island, Oxford, may have fallen under the axe, but campaigners are still beating the drum against the city council.

This banner was put up on the bridge over the River Thames in Botley Road, looking down into East Street where the 11 trees were felled last week.

A note attached to the banner is urging people to complain to the Local Government Ombudsman.

The council said the trees had to be removed as they were diseased.
