Planning application

20 Mingle Lane Great Shelford Cambridgeshire CB22 5BG

Refused South Cambridgeshire 22/1292/TTPO Works to TPO trees

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

To remove by section fell 2 x Sycamore trees. These trees have grown very large and have signs of sooty bark disease and as such Mr Waters would like them removed as he believes if a major limb failed it could do damage to his large shed which contains a very valuable train collection. This would also allow other trees to have room to flourish and allow him to re-plant more appropriate trees for this part of his garden. I am told these trees were not planted deliberately but were self seeded and left to grow to maturity. All of the trees have little amenity value.

As published by the council, reference 22/1292/TTPO
