27 Abbotswood, Guildford, GU1 1UY
Proposal
T1- Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) located in a Northerly direction, cut back by approximately 3m of some of the growth that overhangs the house, as it is encroaching. The over extended laterals grow in a southerly direction. The tree is currently approximately 9.5m high and 5m wide and will be the same height and 3m wide following the proposed works as it is selective limbs that will not impact the rest of the canopy (Abbotswood Conservation Area).

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Guildford 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.
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.
