Planning application

Scartho Hall Matthew Telford Park Grimsby North East Lincolnshire DN33 2DU

Granted North East Lincolnshire DM/0429/22/TCA Works to a tree in a Conservation 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

Trees overhang the site adjacent to what will be Juniper way on the Kings Park site at Scartho top. Trees are a mixture of hardwoods including Cherry, Ash and Sycamore. Lift the crowns on the site side only to 4 meters and reduce the remaining crown back to the boundary fence line. No height will be reduced from the trees. Cut back to suitable secondary growth points and maintain a flowing line for trees canopy. Within the site running along what is currently used as storage for excess soil there are a number of 'self set' trees of smaller diameter that we intend to remove, these trees are running along the current fence and impede the new feather edged internal fence from being continued to the end of the site. These trees within the site mainly consist of Birch, Cherry and Elm (many of which are dead or in decline, speaking of the elm of course).

The client is asking permision to fell as its a health and safety hazzard. T44 Map B - Beech (Fagus sylvatica) 20m. Large included fork at 1.5m & large open cavity and rot evident in main stem at 4m. The client is asking permision to reduce height by 6m to 14m to reduce sail effect and tension in the inclusion of the trunk. Remove 4m from the large weight baring limb over public footpath and construction site. Sympathetic reshape of the remaining canopy.

    Sycamore (MS No. T1) - Within Conservation Area Only. Multi-stemmed middle aged sycamore likely to tolerate disturbance associated with works as individual stems are relatively small and the species and age make this tree reasonably resilient to some root loss. To be kept under review during excavation and tree removed or pruned if root loss required to complete works exceeds tolerable limits. Sycamore, Common Hawthorn, Common Ash, English Holly & Bird Cherry (MS No. G1) - Within Conservation Area Only. Scrubby and outgrown hawthorn, holly, birch cherry, ash and sycamore hedge with ivy to be cut back around existing opening for path only so far as is necessary to gain access to the working area. It is estimated that this will widen the existing opening by between 1 and 2.5m on either side.

    Pruning/Removal as per 'Scartho Hall - Gas Mains Replacement Arb Method Statement' Common Lime (TPO No. T21/ MS No. T6) - Remove epicormic growth at base of tree to allow access at ground level and to alleviate obstruction to vehicles and pedestrians before the diameter of epicormic growth becomes such that removal would cause significant wounding. Work is necessary for gas main replacement but will also benefit tree. English Elm (TPO No. T19/ MS No. T12) - Remove all branches and convert moribund elm tree to monolith. Leave standing stem with ivy covering at c.6m in height for habitat. Work may require access by MEWP or by anchoring into adjacent trees. Sycamore (TPO No. 20/ MS No. 4) Sycamore stump to be removed by stump grinder only if it obstructs safe access to the working area. It may prove possible to avoid this stump, or to cut it to ground level with a chainsaw. Both of these eventualities will be preferred where possible.
