    There is no tree preservation order, but the tree in question is in a conservation area. There is a tree outside the house I am about to purchase at 10 Pavilion Place, and I would like to know if, when I am the owner, I can obtain permission to lop it, as it is touching wires up above. This tree is tied to the remains of the trunk of a dead tree (approx. 1.4 metres high). I would like permission to reduce this remaining trunk to a stump.
