Planning application
Tewkesbury Orchard Main Road West Lulworth BH20 5RL
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
16 x Conifers (Leyland Cypress) to be removed at the back of the garden, approximately height of trees 2.5m and width of area planted is 8 meters. Dead branches on some and they are planted too close to a retaining wall (approximately 60cm away) and a garage and are causing damage to the garage and retaining walls. These will be replaced with a mix of small espalier fruit trees which will be easy to maintain and not cause damage to the retaining wall or encroach on the neighbouring properties.
