Planning application

4 Fosse Barton Nailsea BS48 2BW

Awaiting decision North Somerset 26/P/1899/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

(G1) Mixed species of Sycamore, Ash and Yew) Crown reduction by up to 3mtrs/ suitable grow points to side only of trees overhanging 4 Fosse Barton. Reason: These trees are in normal physiological health, carrying out these works will have minimal effect to the trees amenity value. These tree cover 50% of the garden and will continue to grow as not yet fully mature. These works are necessary as a practical management programme due to the trees being in close proximity to the properties.
