Awaiting decision Lake District National Park 2026/1744/TCA Tree in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

S211 Notification; Conservation Area tree works: Hollies, hawthorns and yews contained within the boundaries of the central garden; regular prune and shape. Laurels, rhododendrons and conifers contained within the boundaries of the central garden; regular prune, and gradually replace with native and 'close to native' alternate species. Crown lift all trees in the square as needed to provide clearance of street lamps, 2.5m over footpaths and 5m over highways. Variegated Maple (no 1 on sketch plan), opposite number 21 Brunswick Square. Remove and replant with a native or 'close to native' alternative which is more appropriate in final size and shape to its location.
