Granted Rugby Trees in conservation area

Proposal

T1 Holly on South Rd boundary, prune height by approx 4m, (current height 10m) tree obstructs light spread from post and reduces light to rear/side aspect of property. T2 Walnut (in garden S. boundary) , prune by 1-1.5m, (current height 4.5m), T3 Lime, lift crown to 8m, reduce height to previous pruning points, approx 8.5m and spread 2-5m from base graduated toward top of crown, (current height of tree 27m). T4 Cypress, cut to ground, insignificant within context of conservation area. T5 Cherry, smaller tree, prune back crown spread to lawn by approx. 3m and height by 1.5m.(currently 5.5m sp.+ 8m h.) T6 Willow, prune back spread over lawn by removing two lower branches and shortening back third branch over lawn at approx. 5m, prune opposite side of crown over highway by thinning-out (approx 30%) to counter weight removal from opposing side. T7 Cherry over bottom driveway, prune height by1.5-2m, re-shape crown as appropriate to height reduction and remove low branch obstructing driveway. T8 Variegated Holly prune height by approx 2.5m and re-shape. Reason for pruning the majority of theses trees is to allow more light to the rear garden.

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.
