  • Yew Tree Cottage High Street Sixpenny Handley SP5 5NR

    T1 Yew - Reduce branches encroaching on the adjacent dwelling (Yew Tree Cottage) by 1m-1.5m in length.

    Decided 10 Aug 2026 Trees
  • Yew Tree Cottage High Street Sixpenny Handley SP5 5NR

    Land adjacent to T1 Yew: Install an additional parking area in front of property which will involve the use of "eco grid" material being placed on top of the grass covering an area approximately 3.5m x 2.5m in size. Whilst this area will sit within the root protection zone of the yew tree, it will be directly in front of, and abutting, Yew Tree Cottage. The parking area will also be significantly further away from the trunk of the yew tree than the established parking area already in regular use by the neighbouring property at Victory House. Recent land survey document submitted showing the current positioning of all items, as well as an additional annotated version of this plan showing the proposed area to be used. These plans show the scale of the image, the positioning of Yew Tree Cottage on the site, as well as adjacent property locations in the private development. There will be little to no digging involved, nor roots exposed. Propose to place this recommended grid on top of the existing surface with minimal level adjustments which will ensure the grid sits flush on the surface, following the direct guidance from the manufacturer to ensure correct and accurate fitment.
