Planning application

The Old Rectory Green Lane Ashmore Dorset SP5 5AG

Granted Dorset P/TRC/2023/01107 Tree Works- Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 - Cedar of Lebanon - Reduce the lateral spread of the lower and mid-crown branches on three sides by the following amounts: East - 1.0 metres, South - 2.0 metres, West - 1.5 metres. To attain a natural and flowing branch tracery, the pruning back of some peripheral branches may slightly exceed the above reduction distances so that pruning cuts can be taken back to suitable nodes (drop crotching). Existing branch tips that do not exceed the finished lateral spread are not to be pruned. The crown reduction aims to retain the tree’s current form (rounded to conical - refer to annotated photo N). Remove the low, failed branch (dog-legged stub) on the south-west side back to the union. T2 - Cedar of Lebanon - Proposed works to this tree requires no pruning, just non-invasive flexible bracing (therefore a S211 notice is not required).
