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.

4 River View Boston Spa Wetherby LS23 6BA
T1 Sycamore (Acer Psuedoplatanus) - Dismantle and remove. Although the tree is currently in generally good physiological condition, there is a significant cavity located approximately halfway up the main stem. The cavity extends to around halfway into the heartwood and has previously supported two large fruiting bodies of Dryads Saddle (Cerioporus squamosus). This species is a wood-decay fungus associated with white rot. While it is considered a secondary decay organism, once established it can significantly accelerate structural weakening of the host timber.
