Land At Ngr 287628 68014 Road To Padacre Kingskerswell Devon TQ12 5AX

Awaiting decision Teignbridge 26/00561/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Oak G1, T1, T2 - Fell Although formally assessed as Elevated Risk, the progressive nature of the ground failure means the risk is increasing and should be treated as approaching Critical. No alternative management options (such as pruning or monitoring) can address the underlying loss of ground stability. Felling is therefore the only reasonable and proportionate measure to reduce risk to an acceptable level in accordance with NTSG guidance and duty-holder obligations under UK health and safety legislation.
