Planning application

Bottom Cottage Thurlow Booth Whatstandwell Matlock Derbyshire DE4 5ER

Decided Amber Valley TRE/2022/0170 Trees

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

Removal of Norway spruce that was originally planted for use as a household Christmas tree (see attached map ??? labelled T1). This tree is growing very close to my domestic Klargester/septic tank system. I was advised by Ashfield Effluent that the tree roots might be at risk of damaging the Klargester/septic tank if the tree is not cut down. Removal of a multi-trunk sycamore tree which is restricting the growth of an adjacent specimen native silver birch (see attached map ??? labelled T2). Both trees are full within my property. neither tree is subject to a TPO. The trees cannot be seen from neighbouring properties or from any roads or footpaths.

    Trees to the north of the property, south side of the river bank. G1: Trim back trees along the laterally wall to maintain clearance for vehicles. Trimming back to wall and approximately 3m high. G1.1: Trees in this section are forming more of a hedge structure. Reduce in height to approximately 5m in this smaller section to prevent hedge from growing too tall. T1: Alder. Re-pollard to previous pollard points due to the re-growth becoming very long and spindly, and also growing northeast toward neighboring properties.
