Planning application

Lordship Cottage 1 Fardells Lane Elsworth Cambridge Cambridgeshire CB23 4JE

Granted Cambridge 20/2471/TTCA Works to CA trees

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

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

Proposal

Remove two semi-mature silver birch (T1 and T2) on the boundary wall to the east of the house. The trees have outgrown the space and are too close to the boundary wall and other neighbouring structures including the house. Our house has a thatched roof, and a thatcher commented that the trees are probably contributing to an excessive amount of moss on the elevation facing the trees. Surveyors monitoring subsidence on a porch at the north end of the house recommended that the trees should be removed. It is planned to replace with a much smaller tree such as prunus subhirtella 'Autumnalis'. A1 Plan attached A2 Photograph
