Planning application
26/00318/TCA
Avon Lock House King Johns Court Tewkesbury Gloucestershire GL20 6EG
Proposal
Ash tree situated adjacent to Avon Navigation building and public footpath. Fell to as near to surrounding ground level as possible. Reason for work: The tree is a poor specimen. It has previously been pruned approximately 10 metres above ground level. The tree has cavities at ground level and is leaning more than when previously inspected last year. Water aggression to the roots due to the river consistently flooding. If the tree was to fail it will damage the fence and adjacent building.
As published by the council, reference 26/00318/TCA

What a grant of permission means
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.
