Priest to chain herself to tree at Euston in protest against HS2 felling plans
Residents say they have been pushed into taking direct action to save the 200 trees around train station in central London
A priest is to chain herself to a tree outside Euston station in central London in a protest against the felling of more than 200 trees around the station to make way for the HS2 rail line.
Dozens of giant London plane trees in Euston Square Gardens are among those earmarked to be cut down to provide temporary sites for construction vehicles and a taxi rank displaced by work at the station.
