Planning application

St Martins Church Church Lane North Perrott Crewkerne Somerset

Awaiting decision Exmoor National Park 26/02100/TCA Work to Trees

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Notification of intent to carry out tree surgery works to no. 1 Tree within a Conservation Area. The tree is a spindle tree. The work that needs to be done as soon as possible is to saw through the remaining split part of the trunk and remove the fallen tree. This may allow the shoot from the stump to survive.

As published by the council, reference 26/02100/TCA
