On Tuesday 15th November 2011 contractors arrived at the Porthminster Hotel / St Ives Harbour Hotel to fell around 80 trees below the site of an apartment block that is under construction. On Wednesday, a group of 12 protesters occupied the site to prevent any further felling. After the occupation had continued for a few hours, the development company agreed to suspend the works and meet with the protesters and the Town Council to discuss their concerns. Well done to everyone who came to show their support.
