Planning application

Mulberry Cottage Fox Road Balsham Cambridgeshire CB21 4EZ

Granted South Cambridgeshire 24/0870/TTPO Works to TPO trees

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Lime - L1 - Re-pollard to previous pollarded points. They are at around 2.5m from ground level. The reason we are doing this is that the regrowth on a pollard is Epicormic emergency growth and has no real structural strength. (Owned by Applicant) Beech - B1 - Reduce crown by 30%, 1-3m overhanging neighbour and overshadowing garden. (Owned by Neighbour)
