   Decision issued: Refuse Permission

3. 19 Aug 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

This type of application deals with conditions attached to an existing permission, either by supplying the details a condition requires, called discharging it, or by asking to vary or remove one. It does not reopen the principle of the permission itself. Building often cannot lawfully start, or continue past a set stage, until the named conditions are discharged.

  G1 Trees all within the same group. Mature oak tree - remove deadwood, to then reduce the lateral spread by 2-2.5m and the height by approx 1-1.5m to mitigate the risk of failure due to the lateral growing form of the tree and woodpecker holes sited at the top of the tree. Singular small yew - fell to give clearance of the phone wires and this is a poor specimen interfering with other trees. Give clearance to the phone wire by 0.5m where possible without impacting major limbs. Second smaller oak remove deadwood. Yew overhanging road - prune lightly to the edge of the road to prevent damage to vehicles.
