Planning application

The Old Vicarage Branscombe Seaton EX12 3DW

Awaiting decision East Devon 26/1324/TRE Felling/Lopping (TPO)

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

T1- Ash: fell to ground level due to significant signs of basal decay. The extent of decay is considered likely to have compromised the structural integrity and long-term retention potential of the tree, presenting an increased risk of stem or root plate failure. Removal is proposed on the grounds of safety.

As published by the council, reference 26/1324/TRE
