Proposal
Tree species - Sycamore Tree TPO reference number 29/T6 TPO title Highview (2) TPO 1977 Location: CENTRE OF REAR GARDEN ADJACENT TO WEST BOUNDARY Tree species - Sycamore Tree TPO reference number 29/T7 TPO title Highview (2) TPO 1977 Location: TOWARD SOUTHWEST CORNER OF REAR GARDEN ADJACENT TO WEST BOUNDARY Works to be carried out on T6 & T7 Crown Reduction: Reduce the overall crown by up to 30% (approximately 2–3 meters), ensuring a balanced and natural shape is maintained. Crown Lifting: Remove lower branches to achieve a clearance of 3 meters above ground level, improving light penetration. Deadwood Removal: Eliminate all dead, dying, or diseased branches to promote tree health and safety. Justification for Works: The tree's current size is disproportionate to the garden space, leading to excessive shading of the property and neighboring gardens. Lower branches obstruct pathways, posing a hazard to residents and visitors. Deadwood presents a risk of falling branches, which could cause injury or property damage.

What withdrawal means
The process from here
The applicant withdrew this application before the council decided it, so it carries no planning weight and no fee refund is automatic. Withdrawal often follows officer feedback that a refusal was likely.
The applicant is free to submit a revised application at any time, and many withdrawn schemes return in amended form, so the site is worth watching if the proposal affected you.
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.
