Planning application

The White Lion 38 Queen Street Geddington NN14 1AZ
Proposal
T1 - Mature Weeping Beech - Crown lift the southern and south-western canopy overhanging the rear garden of The Old White Lion, 38 Queen Street, Geddington, to provide a minimum clearance of 3 metres above ground level. Remove low hanging pendulous secondary growth and branch extremities over the garden seating and amenity areas. Undertake a lateral reduction of the overhanging canopy by up to 2 metres, pruning back to suitable growth points in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations. Remove branches currently approaching or making contact with the ground within the applicant's property Reason for Works: The canopy extends approximately 4 metres beyond the boundary into the applicant's rear garden. Lower branches have developed to a height that restricts access, maintenance and normal use of the garden, including the principal seating and recreation areas. The proposed works are limited to crown lifting and sympathetic lateral reduction to provide reasonable clearance and reduce excessive end-weight on overextended branches whilst maintaining the health, form and amenity value of the tree

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with North Northamptonshire for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
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.
