Planning application

Lodge Cottage 2 Somersall Lane Somersall S40 3LA

Refused Chesterfield CHE/21/00527/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

Somersall Lodge T1. Remove because it's too close to the house and the trepidation the owner has to put up with is not justified by its relatively low amenity value. Replant with one Red Maple (10-12) elsewhere in the garden. There is not really space to replant in the same position.

As published by the council, reference CHE/21/00527/TPO

What refusal means

The process from here

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.

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
