Back Garden: T1 Apple. Fell to Ground Level. T2 Wisteria and Pyracantha 50% Reduction. Council Note: Section 211 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 applies only to works to trees within a conservation area. The notification also refers to works to shrubs and climbers, including wisteria and pyracantha, which are not protected or controlled under section 211. The Council has therefore assessed and recorded its position only in respect of the tree works. No consideration has been given to works to shrubs or climbers, and no consent is required from the Council for such works.
