Planning application

3 Pikes Marsh Bures St Mary Bures Suffolk CO8 5AQ

Granted Mid Suffolk DC/26/00285 Notification: Works to Trees in Con Area

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

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 - Removal of 1no silver birch tree (T1) down to ground level with stump ground out - works to be carried out by qualified tree surgeon. Tree is located in rear garden of the property.Justification: The tree was only planted when the development was built (circa 2014). The tree is very large for the space it is within and is very close to a neighbouring property, causing overshadowing. The roots are extensive and have caused damaged to gravel boards below fence panels. Maintenance is a lot of work and therefore smaller, more manageable planting will be undertaken in its place.
