Andy Wightman: Land reform can tackle the symptoms but ignore the causes
I RECENTLY enjoyed a few days exploring Glen Affric in blustery but sunny conditions and is a place I have always loved visiting. It contains some of the most significant remnants of Caledonian pinewood and over the past 60 years the native forests in the glen have been regenerating and expanding thanks to the enlightened leadership the late FC forester Finlay Macrae and, since the 1990’s, the efforts of the Trees for Life charity. In 2002, the glen was designated as a National Nature Reserve.
