College House College Hill Penryn Cornwall TR10 8LG
Proposal
Works to trees within a Conservation Area, namely 1) Group of 3 x trees sits on the north-western corner of the properties front garden. T1: Hawthorn, apex 8" DBH. Previously this has been topped but it above hedge height (approximately 12ft currently) The proposed work is to reduce the height of the stem below hedge height (a cut at approx 4ft) to enable the hawthorn to be maintained at the existing hedge height in future (approx 7ft). 2) T2 Beech, approx 8" DBH, current height approx 14ft: Repollard to approx 8ft height. 3) T3, Cypress: approx 8" DBH: This tree is too close to the retaining wall to be allowed to grow to its full potential, removal would enable the neighbouring beech to spread out. Fell.

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.
