Planning application
Village Green Grove Road Brockdish Norfolk
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 Field Maple - Remove fallen tree on village green T2 Hawthorn - remove small tree that is growing in the channel of the brook. This is to avoid it falling if the roots are washed out and also to keep the main channel of the watercourse clear. Photos of both trees are provided. The fallen tree is circled in red as it is hard to see under the ivy. The trees in question are small, around 80mm trunk diameter so only just require permission. We propose to replant a new tree and continue the new hedging to improve the look of the green once these are removed.

The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
