Planning application
Lancaster House 30 The Green Orton On The Hill Atherstone Leicestershire CV9 3NG
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Lime (T1) Crown lift to 5 metres above ground level by removing all epicormic growth from the main stem and basal area. The prolific epicormic growth has smothered the trunk and removing it will restore the formal silhouette of the tree. Removing growth allows for a clear visual inspection of the main stem and root flare for any signs of decay or fungal pathogens.

The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
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.

T1 Lawsons Cypress: Removal of the Lawsons Cypress is proposed due to its very close proximity to the adjacent property, approximately 1.5 metres away. T2 Cedar of Lebanon: Reduce all lateral and upper branches by approximately 3 metres to maintain a smaller, more manageable crown size and reduce the potential risk of branch failure.
