Planning application
T/00478/25/TCA
Court Farm House Church Road Overton Hampshire RG25 3HF
Proposal
T1: Field Maple- Permission to remove lowest over extended limb to reduce shading over the lawn area, and also to remove the risk of possible failure. T2: Sycamore- Fell due to excessive shading in garden area and damage to the bifurcated union at the base of the tree. There is a large wooded area behind the tree that would fill out to ensure no loss of amenity value. T3: Lime- 4-5m reduction in height, and 1-2m reduction on the trees laterals, leaving a finished height of 15m and crown spread of 6m. The tree is located in close proximity to the pool and casts excessive shading. A canopy reduction would assist in more light getting through to this area and also the flower beds and hedging below. T4: Tulip tree- crown lift lower laterals to create a clearance from the top of the Yew hedge by 1m so it is able to fill out to the same height as the rest of the hedge.

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.

T/00505/25/TCA Granted
1 Glebe Meadow Overton Hampshire RG25 3ER
We would like to remove two coniferous trees (T1, T2) from the rear garden of 1 Glebe Meadow. The trees are very close to the boundary with No.2 and have outgrown the garden, as they are taller than the houses and cast significant shadows across the garden. Due to their proximity to the houses, they pose a risk in strong winds, especially as one appears to be hollowing around the base.
