Planning application

9 Esthwaite Lane Plymouth PL6 5FQ

Granted Plymouth 23/00262/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

Mature Beech (T1) - Fell. This tree has a large cavity within the base. There is also a large section of decay on the buttress and due to the significant lean towards the school and road I have advised that this tree should be removed. Please see attached photos showing the cavity and decay.

As published by the council, reference 23/00262/TPO
