Awaiting decision Pendle 26/0615/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

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

Proposal

T1 Willow - Cut back the tree branches to improve side access and safety. The goal is to reduce the length of the major branches by up to 5m so they are in line with the fence

As published by the council, reference 26/0615/TCA

    In the rear garden there is a self seeded ash tree just over the rear boundary. Tree has dieback and land at the back is being developed. Customer wants to reduce this ash tree back to the boundary to feel safe to go under and so nothing falls on garage. In the back border there is a cherry tree which is to be reduced by approx 1.5m max in height and blend shape to the sides leaving overall width for privacy screen. Small damson in the left hand border to remove (probably too small for notification anyhow.)
