Planning application
Raglan House High Street Lydney Gloucestershire GL15 5DD
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Fell Horse Chestnut tree in southern corner of the garden, which extends over the High Street and Stanford Road. The tree has a large, dead limb causing decay in the centre of the trunk. Due to the decay, there is a high likelihood of the southern limb cleaving off and falling into the High street over the next few years, causing potential injury to persons and property.
