Planning application
Maple Leaf Ipplepen Road Marldon TQ3 1SG
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1: Ash – Fell to ground level due to ash dieback and the resulting deterioration in the tree’s condition (on the original TPO, this is labelled as T12) No replacement is proposed in the position of T1 because of its close proximity to the house. T2: Ash - Fell to ground level due to ash dieback and the resulting deterioration in the tree’s condition (on the original TPO, this is likely to be T6, T5 having been felled in 2022 due to ash die back and replaced under application 3609/22/TPO) One suitable native replacement tree will be planted in the position marked R1 on the accompanying plan
