About lawful development applications
How this application type works
A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

G12 - Elder, coppice 2 no. of stems Justification of works to T1 & T15: The clearance of the basal epicormic growth on T1 is to allow for a detailed inspection of the base of the tree. The Pear tree, T15, has had a large branch, or co-dominant stem, tear out and left a large wound and a significant volume has been removed. A reduction in the height is to reduce loadings at this point and for the benefit of the tree and its longevity. See the report for full details.
