Planning application

2 Thoresby College Queen Street King's Lynn Norfolk PE30 1HX

Granted King’s Lynn and West Norfolk 24/00196/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

Judas tree within courtyard. Following major limb failure in May 2024, the tree shall be subject to a reduction of its entire periphery by 1.5 to 2 metres alleviating the risk posed by subsiding branches over the footpath and attempting to stimulate growth within the lower crown. The production of epicormic growth at the base of tree and lower stem(s) should not be the subject of pruning or removal as their development as an asset is essential for the future management of the tree. Tree currently approximately 9 metre high and 12 metre spread.

As published by the council, reference 24/00196/TREECA

    2/TPO/00666: T1- Lime: Reduction of crown on SSW side of crown over structure 2.5-3.5m. Crown reduction of over extended limbs (target prune on whole crown) 1-2.5m. This reduction will bring the extended limbs back in to the main crown structure and reduce risk of extended limbs failing due to previous pruning cuts. Current crown size 22x13m. T2- Lime: Crown reduction of over extended limbs (target prune on whole crown) 1-2.5m. This reduction will bring the extended limbs back in to the main crown structure and reduce risk of extended limbs failing due to previous pruning cuts. Current crown size 20x13m. T3- Lime: Reduction on NE side of crown 2-2.5m, lime tree has been removed from the western side of T3 this has caused the early development growth to lean to the E and removing the tree has exposed the crown (T3) to the environment change. Reducing the crown on eastern side will promote better structure and reduce risk of failing. Current crown size 22x13m. Location/risk- T1,2 & 3 have highways and dwellings in target zone including oil tanks (domestic). Public foot fall is high due to local amenities route. All above work in line with BS 3998 (2010).
