Planning application

Gravel Club Hibson Road Nelson Lancashire BB9 0PS

Granted Pendle 23/0698/TPO Works to a tree with a TPO

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 Ash T2 Lime T3 Lime T4 Sycamore - Crown Raise secondary branches on all trees upto 5m back to suitable growing points. The Tree splits into 2 stems at around 2ft heigh which has created a water pocket over the years and upon inspection in the cavity there is heavy signs of rot. Used a tree auger to test depth of rot and was able to reach into the middle of the stem. The Tree has a heavy lean over the clubhouse and with a high level of public traffic I would advise the Tree is removed due to identified increased risk of failure and subsequent unacceptable risk of harm to persons

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 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.

    Re submitted application 1 year later due to continued growth as tree is in need of management - The Yew in question has recently caused the clients dog to undergo surgery due to the ingestion of yew berries and it overly concerned that this may happen again. The tree is over grown of the area in my opinion and also i may add that it does'nt seem lie it adds very much value to the area and also the situ of the tree it is only going to cause more concern so the client would like it removed to ground level
