Planning application
Peel Barn Dobbin Lane Cloughfold Rossendale Lancashire BB4 7TE
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
The tree we are are applying to remove is a sycamore, which has grown to big for the root base, which is on the edge of the scout field and Peel View. The tree is also covered mostly with ivy, we consider the possibility of potential damage or danger to both the scout property and Peel View. We have recently cleared the hill side of debris and rubbish and plan to replant several English trees along with the apple, silver birch and beech that are already present.

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.
