Planning application

39 Chancery Lane Debenham Stowmarket Suffolk IP14 6PH

Granted Mid Suffolk DC/25/04439 Notification: Works to Trees in Con Area

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Notification of works to trees in a Conservation Area - Horse chestnut tree, to reduce just above previous pollard points, retaining as much shape as possible. Given it has been a long time since the tree has been cut back the level of shaping required varies on different sections of the tree. It has been suggested a c. 30% canopy reduction would be sufficient to provide clearance for power lines that branches are now encroaching on and retain the tree shape.

As published by the council, reference DC/25/04439
