Proposal
Works to trees subject to a Tree Preservation Order, namely 1) Removal of Mature Poplar trees to ground level. The copse of extremely large Poplar trees have become too tall for their location and now pose significant risk to both Trelayne property and Myrtle cottage should any of the trees fail in similar storms to what we have witnessed recently. Many large limbs fell from the trees in the recent storms and a couple of the trees have shifted and are showing signs that they have uprooted within the wall that they are positioned. I have significant fears for the safety of my family and that of mine and my neighbours property. As these trees provide high amenity for local residents and local wildlife, I would like to retain the smaller Sweet Chestnut trees and replant a further Sweet Chestnut Tree and an English Oak. this will provide a large deciduous canopy that can be planted in such a way that at maturity of these trees, they will not be at risk of striking the properties, should they fail.

What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
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.
