Planning application
Newlyn Penny Bridge ULVERSTON LA12 7RQ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
South Lakeland DC TPO No 65 1988 “Maple - Fell to ground level and remove all arisings from site, tree has a fungus at just below the pollard point (possibly Oxyporus populinus ) limited evidence of the effect it has on trees but believed to be parasitic, given the location of the tree, property and utilities etc we believe this is the safest option. Including application for road space permits and traffic control.” The above information has been provided by South Lakes Tree Surgeons & Landscapes Ltd as set out in the documents sent via email. The tree subject to this application is the only remaining tree on the land of Newlyn subject to a TPO. It is not proposed to plant a replacement tree for the tree that this application relates due to its close proximity to my property Newlyn, the neighbouring property, Fairholme and utilities. If it is felt that a replacement tree is required, it is proposed to plant a Copper Beech to replace this tree. It is also understood that a tree was required to be planted following the felling of a previous tree subject to a TPO. A replacement tree had been planted however it appears to have failed. It is therefore proposed to plant a further tree, a Rowan, to replace that tree.

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.
