Planning application

Beech House Bydand Lane Little Paxton St Neots PE19 6ES

Granted Huntingdonshire 22/02319/TREE Works to Protected Tree

Works: Trees Several homes

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 Copper Beech: 18 metres - the intention is to reduce the wind resistance and I would not expect a reduction of more than 1.8 metres at any point, except for the removal of branches that have shed their bark and these dead branches are all within the bulk of the tree. T2 Copper Beech: 10 - 11 metres - I would not expect the crown to be reduced by more than 1 metre. Our main aim is to reduce the dominance of the western aspect and possibly to remove a damaged lower limb and to preserve the Wisteria growing through the branches. T3 Silver Birch: 8 metres - necessary maintenance to contain the tree to a sensible size as situated between two houses and adjacent to a neighbouring driveway. A reduction of no more than 1 metre. No established limbs will be removed.

What a grant of permission means

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.
