Planning application

47 Kempthorne Lane, Odd Down, Bath, Bath And North East Somerset, BA2 5DX

Granted Bath and North East Somerset 26/02713/TPO Tree Works subject to TPO

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T1- Birch - Remove the 3 inch diameter limb in proximity to the street light. From the large NorthEast stem- Shorten the 2 vertical ends of this stem, cutting twice at approx.9 inch diameter. Shorten side pieces toward the house by 2.5m length. Remove one low 3 inch diameter NorthEast limb from the house side. This work will create clearance from the street light (property damage risk), and alleviate weight on sections that lean toward 47, Kempthorne Lane. The goal is to retain the tree for as long as possible, whilst minimising risk and future risk of heavy imbs threatening that property and the garden there.
