Associated British Ports (ABP) has completed the planting of more than 1,000 trees at the Port of Immingham.
The trees, planted on a dedicated conservation site, are designed to provide shelter for animals and create a natural wildlife habitat. Species include 400 hawthorne, 300 blackthorn, 50 field maple and 50 hazel trees.
John Copping, ABP port director for Grimsby & Immingham, said: “The planting of these indigenous trees and shrubs at Immingham has undoubtedly improved the aesthetics of the port estate as well as given us an opportunity to promote nature conservation in an industrial setting.”
