Planning application

21 Hardwick Avenue Chepstow Monmouthshire NP16 5DJ

Granted Monmouthshire DM/2025/00020 Works to trees in a Con Area

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

The three conifers are two thirds of the way down a long narrow garden. They have completely outgrown the space and dominate the whole garden. Two of them overhang the neighbours and so could not be pruned on our side only without making them appear lopsided. We propose to remove those two (1 and 3 on the attached plan) and will reduce the crown on the third (2 on plan) so that it is less dominant. Two apple trees at the near end (5 on plan) and middle (4 on plan) of the garden are to have their crowns thinned.

As published by the council, reference DM/2025/00020
