Planning application

Woodlands Mill Lane Docking King's Lynn Norfolk PE31 8NX

Granted King’s Lynn and West Norfolk 24/00157/TREECA Works to/Fell Tree in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

3 x fir tree / conifers at the front of the property, approx 30 feet tall impacting on the growth of native holly trees and causing risk to power lines. Planted too close together to allow effective management. We would like to have these trees removed by a tree surgeon to allow the native holly trees to recover and protect the power lines. 2 x conifers to the southern perimeter of the property approx 20 feet tall bordering neighbouring property causing shading and moss build up. Again planted too close together preventing healthy growth of both trees. We would like to have these trees removed to improve light to the property and prevent damage to property.
