Planning application
2 Fishers Lane Orwell SG8 5QX
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Fell and Treat Stump to TG2 False Acacia (4 trees) located at The Glebe House, Fishers Lane, Orwell, Royston, Hertfordshire, SG8 5QX 1. The above tree works are proposed as a remedy to the differential foundation movement at the above address and to ensure the long-term stability of the building. 2. The above tree works are proposed to limit the extent and need for expensive and disruptive engineering repair works. 3. The above tree works are proposed to limit the duration of any claim period and, therefore, allow the landowner his right to the peaceful enjoyment of his property. 4. It is the case that an alternative to felling TG2 such as pruning or significant pollarding of the trees, would not provide a reliable or sustainable remedy in this case. 5. We do not consider that any other potential means of mitigation, such as root barriers, would be effective or appropriate in the circumstances.
