Planning application

57 Union Street East Stowmarket Suffolk IP14 1HP

Granted Babergh DC/25/05326 Notification: Works to Trees in Con Area

Works: Trees

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 - fell 2no. trees One of them is dead that we believe the other to be a European Silver Fern. There are currently telephone/broadband lines running through them and they sway a lot in the breeze. The fear is that they could bring the lines down or even fall over onto Regent Street or towards the house. We would like them to be taken out to protect the neighbouring properties and ourselves from potential damage.
