Planning application
Homefield Norwich Road Edgefield Melton Constable Norfolk NR24 2RL
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1- Conifer, fell and remove stump. Owner would like it "topped" due to the height. The tree is too large to reduce it and make a significant impact using correct methods. T2- Conifer- dead fell and remove stump. T3- Possible purple leaf plumb. Pollard tree back to points previously cut. T4- Magnolia, pollard back to points where previously cut. Crown lift by removing the bottom two branches. T5- Holy, fell and remove stump. Tree has been allowed to grow far too close to the house; it now rests on the roof and is causing issues to the building. T6- Unknown, same location as the holly. Most likely responsible for the issues the owner has indoors. T7/8- Holly planted as a hedgerow. Both now are out of line and stick out into the shared drive.

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 three 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.
