Planning application

Gloucester Robinswood Hotel Matson Lane Gloucester GL4 6EA

Decided Gloucester 24/00108/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

See works schedule attached which includes tree identifier to plan, genus, works specification and justification. Additional assessment details are stated in assessment covering letter. The TPO is an area order with plan based on old landmarks. It is not possible to differentiate between trees directly subject the order at the site and those that are not. Therefore all works to trees are included for the current site, this includes some beyond the scope of TPO's. T46 will separately be submitted as a 5 day notification with additional supporting material. No replacement trees are recommended due to density of existing trees (older and younger than the TPO's date). If required more tree assessment detail can be submitted to aid the Authorities determination process, in the form of a spreadsheet. However given the type of information included this will not be for the public register.

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.

    It's an indian bean tree located the front of the house. It is a very big tree and is causing damage to the driveway and the lamp post located near is possibly being effected by the roots and it isn't straight and is wobbly.

    Oak tree covered by an area TPO. A reduction is required to preserve the surrounding properties due to the tree encroaching on boundary gardens. The roots of the tree are already disturbing foundations and causing heave. Suggested reduction of 30%. The impacted tree does not appear to be labelled (or this cannot be identified from documents seen), aerial view of the tree provided. The tree sits within the boundary of 29 Kingsmead, encroaching the neighbouring properties, 47 & 48 Kennett Gardens.
