About lawful development applications

A lawful development certificate is a legal determination that existing or proposed works do not need planning permission; the merits of the scheme are not considered. More in our guide to planning application types.

    T2, Oak : Suggested works: Reduce southern canopy by 3 metres with a maximum diameter of cuts (MDC) of 75mm. Reduce northern canopy by 2 metres, MDC 50mm.

T7, Oak : Suggested works: Reduce decayed lowest extending secondary easterly limb by 4 metres, MDC 100mm. Rationale: Branch exhibits decay and should be removed for safety (see photos).
