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.

Parkwood Free Church Parkwood Green Parkwood Gillingham Medway ME8 9PN
Carry out a crown reduction of the mature Oak tree (Quercus robur) annotated T1. Reduce height and spread by approximately 2 metres from the branch tips, from 19m - 17m (height) 17m-15m (spread) maintaining the trees natural shape and form In conjunction with the crown reduction, undertake a crown lift over the building to achieve a minimum clearance height of approximately 5 metres above ground level roof level where practicable. Tree has dropped deadwood in the past and is causing locals some concern due to over extended branches over roof, the aim would be to remove these to avoid any future potential of damage from branches contacting the roof.
