  44 The Strand Topsham EX3 0BB

  In the garden between The Strand and the RiverExe we have inherited two 'Castlewellan' Leylandii trees that have grown into a common crown and have totally outgrown their location in height and width and density despite their annual maintenance. (they can be clearly seen on Google Maps though these pictures were probably taken some 2 or 3 years ago as our builders 'kit' is also shown). We wish to remove these one/two trees (with Exe Tree Care Ltd to dismantle them to ground level and grind out the stumps etc) and we will replant the area with hedging (possibly beech to match the existing hedge on the road frontage, or perhaps Griselina to handle the salt water spray that comes over the river wall at very high tides. I also want to plant some smaller trees for visual and wildlife interest ... possibly to include Crataegus Laevigata (Paul Scarlet) and a common Medlar. Many thanks (The Google Maps footage shows the garden which is opposite our house, that is clearly marked with "Strand End" over its front door)

   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 21 October 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Exeter took a median of 52 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Exeter for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Exeter decided heritage and listed building applications in a median of 71 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

Listed building consent is needed for works that affect the special interest of a listed building, and carrying out such works without it is a criminal offence. More in our guide to planning application types.
