Planning application

P230190/K

Church Cottage Green Lane Yarpole Herefordshire HR6 0BB

Decided Herefordshire, County of Works to Trees in a Conservation Area

Proposal

We have recently had a Vegetation Management survey on behalf of National Grid over concerns about power cables passing through the canopy of a Monkey Puzzle Tree (T1) growing in our garden. It stands over 10 metres tall. The tree is still growing and stands only 3 metres from the house and is now spreading outwards over the flat roofextension. The base of the tree is also rising and starting to lift the oil storage tank and there may be future issues with paving and drains. We are in agreement with the surveyor that it needs felling to the ground.

As published by the council, reference P230190/K

The process from here

The council has decided this application; the published outcome sits in the record above and the decision notice on the council portal carries the detail, including any conditions.

If permission was granted, work must normally begin within three years of the decision. If it was refused, the applicant can appeal within the statutory time limit or submit a revised scheme.

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.
