   Decision issued: Tree Works/Conservation Area - GRANTED

3. 26 Aug 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

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.

  Works to a tree in a conservation area: T1. Pear Tree. In rear garden of 32 Freemantle Street. Proposed works: Removal by sectional felling. Reasons for desired works: The tree consumes most of the space in the small rear garden and is creating an excessively gloomy environment in the garden and back rooms of the flat. It is fairly tall for a pear tree and not appropriate for such a small garden.
