   Decision issued: Grant Permission

3. 1 Sep 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

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.

  FRONT GARDEN: T1 Common Beech. FELL TO GROUND LEVEL. Council Note: The notifier describes T1 as dead but has submitted the proposed felling through the six week Section 211 notification procedure rather than relying on an exemption. The Council has therefore considered the works as notified and raises no objection.

  Tree Preservation Order No. 519 (2025) was made on 29 May 2025 and confirmed without modification on 16 September 2025. 1 x London Plan (T1) - Height 20m+. Reduce height by 4m and lateral spread by 3m on all compass points, back to suitable growth points to give a 3m clearance of the adjacent property. Reason: Heavy loss of light and blocked gutters. 1 x Weeping Ash (x2) G2 - Both 7m high. Crown lift on the footpath side only to 3m above ground level. Reason: Clearance of vehicles and pedestrians. 1 x Common Lime (x2) (G3) both 10m high. Re-pollard to previous reduction points, branch length approx 3m. Reason: Loss of light and over dominance in its surrounding and proximity to neighbouring properties. Council Note: The submitted application uses the applicant's own numbering. It identifies T1 as London plane, G2 as two weeping ash trees and G3 as two common lime trees. This does not correspond with Tree Preservation Order No. 519 (2025), which protects the trees individually as T1 Common lime, T2 Common lime, T3 London plane, T4 Weeping ash and T5 Weeping ash. The application has been assessed by reference to the physical trees identified on the submitted sketch plan and the corresponding protected tree numbers within Tree Preservation Order No. 519 (2025).
