Planning application

Church Cottage Green Lane Yarpole Herefordshire HR6 0BB

Decided Herefordshire, County of P230190/K Works to Trees in a Conservation Area

Works: Trees

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

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.
