About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

    Land North Of Cross Hands Lydney Gloucestershire GL15 4LH

    Fell 1 x Ash and 1 x Oak covered by Tree Preservation Order number DFTPO 135. The Ash tree has a co-dominant trunk with a mature weak V union. Axis of potential split directs one trunk towards two properties. Removal of one stem leaves remaining stem open to windthrow. The Oak is a highly slender tree and leans 55 degrees to the south-west away from the Ash, then corrects above it. Removal of the Ash leaves this Oak tree susceptible to wind exposure. A 50% crown reduction is an option but would leave limited branching remaining.
