Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
(T1) Beech – Reduce the height by approximately 2–2.5 m and the lateral spread by 1.5–2 m, cutting back from the building as the tree is located in a very confined area within a small garden. The works are proposed to improve light into the property and for general tree maintenance. Remove major deadwood throughout the crown for safety of the public and cars which park underneath the tree.
