Planning application
77 Howdale Road Downham Market Norfolk PE38 9AH
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
I am applying for permission to fell a dead Silver Birch tree in the back garden of my property. The tree is located at the rear of the garden, near to the boundary of my neighbour's property. The tree died within the last 18 months, it has no leaves and has been dropping an increasing number of twigs/small branches over the last few months. If not dealt with soon, I am concerned that the tree may become unsafe, presenting a more significant risk to personal health and safety as well as the greater potential for physical damage to my property. Photos included for reference - Silver Birch 1 & Silver Birch 2.
