Works: Trees Small domestic
Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
With reference to the sketch, tree 1 is the tree for which I seek permission (at the south western corner of 14 Northchurch's front garden) The tree is a horse chestnut The works would be to cut all branches back to my boundary wall (wall with number 16 northchurch terrace) The reason for the works is that there is now a substantial amount of branches coming across the boundary and this is blocking a lot of light, the tree is dropping into my gutter and roof and causing a huge amount of leaf fall in winter. Received 14th May 2026: "I am writing concerning my application to trim the tree at 14 Northchurch Terrace and to give further information. I am consulting with a tree surgeon who has clarified: We want to reduce the branches overhanging your property by approximately 2-3 metres, leaving furnished growth points. The maximum diameter of the pruning will be approximately 2-4 inches. The work will be carried out to the standard of BS 3998: 2010."
