Planning application
Plot 7 River Lark Bank Spooners Drove Isleham Cambridgeshire CB7 5RQ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 & T2 2x large Willow trees to be re-pollarded at approx 15ft/20ft above ground level back to previous points. The trees are on privately owned moorings and sit between the water line of the River Lark and the public footpath on the floodbank at Riverview Marina. They are taking light from the land, preventing the use of solar power. They also present a hazard if not managed, due to the nature of the trees to crack and drop branches, or fall, which could land onto the public footpath, onto the moored boats or into the River Lark.
