Planning application

50, Ashford Road, Tenterden, TN30 6LL

Granted Ashford OTH/2025/2008 Tree Preservation Order - works related

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 - Copper Beech - Fell - The tree is affected by Meripilus Giganticus and 5 years ago we undertook a reduction to extend the life of the tree. However tree surgeons have just reviewed and find that the fungus has extended further and with a probe determined that some of the roots are soft on their undersides.
