Planning application

82 South End Bassingbourn Cum Kneesworth SG8 5NL

Granted Cambridge 21/0016/TTCA Works to CA trees

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Remove Cherry Tree (self sown) - too close to wall of the property, within 20cm distance. Property itself is a grade 2 thatched 17th century cottage. Roots in danger of causing damage to property wall, also water mains below ground in adjacent garden area. Anglia Water/ Cambridge Water have been called out twice within the past 10 years to deal with underground mains leaks which could be related to root system. Branches of the tree touch and extend above overhead telephone cables which cross the front of the property along South End. It would be inappropriate to replace with a similarly sized tree as the area at the front of the house, where the cherry tree is growing, is too small and its proximity to the house is the problem.

    T1 - Cherry tree - Reduce crown by about 3m, or, if this is not possible reduce the crown where it overhangs 67 Hemingford Road by a similar amount. Reason - This would reduce the overshadowing of the roof of 67 Hemingford Road and also prevent branches impinging on telephone wires connecting to 65 Hemingford Road.
