Planning application

Horseshoe Cottage 28 Moreton Lane Bishopstone Buckinghamshire HP17 8SQ

Awaiting decision Buckinghamshire PL/25/2950/KA Works to trees in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Tree in the images we want to cut down completely, we have been advised that the trunk is rotten and with it continuing to lean over it is a safety hazard as it might fall in high winds. Tree is bullace we believe. There is another tree in the background on the border with our neighbour that we would like to prune/cut back and tidy up. (crown reduction 3-4m)

As published by the council, reference PL/25/2950/KA
