   Decision expected by 12 August 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   South Downs National Park took a median of 54 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with South Downs National Park for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

This page mirrors an entry on the statutory planning register that South Downs National Park is required to keep. The published feed for this record does not state which type of application it is, which is common for older entries and for some council systems; the register entry on the council portal will say, alongside the case officer and any consultation dates.

Every planning application follows the same broad path: submission, validation, publicity, then a decision by officers or committee. Our guide to planning application types explains the common types and what each can approve.

  Cut down a single Cupressus/Leylandii (?) tree that has begun to shed branches from height. The top of the tree also creaks. Last year the tree dropped a branch onto my property and recently has shed one onto my neighbour's property - Old Kingsworthy School. The Cupressus/Leylandii is surrounded bounded by Horse Chestnut and Flowering Cherry that will be able to thrive if the tree is removed.

  T1 Sycamore - The Sycamore is of poor structural form due to historic heavy pollarding. The tree is suppressed by adjacent vegetation and is exhibiting poor vitality as it competes for available light. Surface roots are causing displacement of paving slabs and are encroaching upon the drainage infrastructure. Due to its declining condition, limited long-term amenity value, and ongoing damage to surrounding hard surfaces and drainage, permission is sought to Fell. T2 Lime Historically pollard Lime tree. To re-pollard by removing approximately 6 metres of upper crown regrowth, returning the tree to established pollard points. Crown lift epicormic regrowth to a height of approximately 10 metres, up to the principal fork union. The proposed works will maintain the tree within its historic management regime, reduce end-weight on regenerated limbs, and ensure continued sustainable retention. Permission is requested for cyclical re-pollarding and maintenance works and epicormic regrowth. T3 Horse Chestnut To crown lift over the northern highway by up to 10 metres through the removal of tertiary growth only, with pruning cuts not exceeding 30mm in diameter. Additionally, on the first southern bow, selectively reduce overextended secondary and tertiary branches projecting above the driveway by up to 2.5 metres, as indicated in the accompanying photograph. The works are proposed to improve clearance, increase light penetration through the canopy, and reduce the visual dominance of the overextended branch structure whilst retaining the tree's natural form and amenity value. T4 Lime To crown lift epicormic regrowth to approximately 10 metres above ground level, up to the main fork union. The works will improve clearance beneath the canopy and maintain the tree within its established management regime. Permission is requested for ongoing cyclical maintenance. T5 Lime To crown lift epicormic regrowth to approximately 10 metres above ground level, up to the main fo
