Planning application
The Cottage Hill Lane Wythall Worcestershire B47 6AU
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
I would l like to request that my oak tree at 5 mtr away from property is overhanging roof and against bedroom windows and side of house. As we are situated in a high wind area as exposed it has recently began to scrape against roof tiles and windows and I am anxious that it will cause damage this winter, so hence looking for the approval to trim branches where they are affecting property , likely 1/ 2mtr Back to make safe please .
