Planning application
DM/2026/00192
The Gables Llanhennock Monmouthshire NP18 1LT
Proposal
Approx 14m height Sycamore tree within the hedgerow to the rhs of the main gates - crown in decline with decay present / cavities in previous pruning works. Bark peeling and evidence of decay. Tree to be felled - this will enable the beech tree behind to benefit and fill out. There is another sycamore to the LHS of above, closest to the main gates, when the above tree is removed this may become exposed and we may need to reduce by approx 1m target prune to growth points to reduce wind sail.

What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within five years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
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.

Elmdale Monmouth Road Raglan Monmouthshire NP15 2HQ
The proposed works entail the removal of growth which has grown in the direction of the house. The branches are now within touching distance of the wall and roof of the house. There are also 'suckers' which have grown from the base of the tree which are directly overhanging the fence. A arborist has been contacted and has provided a proposed plan of pruning the tree which will minmise the impact on the tree, whilst removing the branches growing at the house. Pictures have been provided of the branches and the proximity of the house, as well as the tree surgeon's proposed work. The tree is a mature horse chesnut tree which is growing in the garden of the neighbouring property, Elmdale, Monmouth Road, Raglan.

Proposed works to D & E (2x Pine trees) Crown reduction and thinning of 2x pine trees by 25% (currently between 6/7 meters tall). Lateral branch reduction by the garage and driveway by a maximum of 1.5 meters, pruning back to suitable growth points.?
