Planning application

Barclay Court Trafalgar Road Cirencester Gloucestershire

Refused Cotswold 20/04426/TPO Works to trees with a TPO

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Dismantle the large Black Pine T2 of TPO - shown in submitted photo - located at the front of the property (Roadside, high target area). Full reduction would be detrimental to the trees health. Heavy lean toward the road, property within failure zone. We would recommend removal and to replace the tree with similar species
