Planning application

Bildeston Hall Duke Street Bildeston Ipswich Suffolk IP7 7EP

Granted Babergh DC/25/04567 Notification: Works to Trees in Con Area

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

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

Proposal

Notification of works to trees in a Conservation Area - Multistem Willow to be repollarded to a height of roughly 60ft to avoid wind throw, and ease of maintenance going forward. There is decay visible on one stem closest to the fence due to a previous limb fail. Tear marks are visible. I propose that stem be brought down to a lower level of 30ft to avoid possible failure.

As published by the council, reference DC/25/04567
