The council has decided this application; the published outcome sits in the record above and the decision notice on the council portal carries the detail, including any conditions.

If permission was granted, work must normally begin within three years of the decision. If it was refused, the applicant can appeal within the statutory time limit or submit a revised scheme.

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

• Newlyn Penny Bridge ULVERSTON LA12 7RQ

  2024/2166/TPO Submitted 12 Nov 2024 309m away

  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.
