   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.

   Exmoor National Park took a median of 44 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Exmoor National Park for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

Heritage applications concern listed buildings and conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for works, inside or out, that affect the special interest of a listed building, and carrying out such works without consent is a criminal offence. The council weighs harm to the heritage asset against any public benefit of the proposal.

  Notification of intent to Fell No. 1 Tree within a Conservation Area. T1 - Yew - grew out of our existing privet hedge opposite the Methodist chapel approximately 20 years ago. We intend to remove it because it causes an obstruction to traffic, particularly higher vehicles, and forces them into the middle of the road in what is already a narrow stretch and a difficult spot for pedestrians. By its nature the yew will only become larger and become more of a problem as time goes on.
