Planning application

NOT/2024/1730

4 Osier Field, Kennington, Ashford, Kent TN25 4PL

Granted Ashford Notification of proposed works to trees in a conservation area

Proposal

T1 - Conifer- Lateral crown reduction by 3 meters to the main stem. Remove several overhanging small conifer branches that overhang the rear garden of 4 Osier field which create an amount of shading to the garden. It is proposed to cut these back to the main stem rather than the boundary as it will leave unsightly pegs which are unlikely to regrow.

As published by the council, reference NOT/2024/1730

What a grant of permission means

The process from here

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
