Planning application

Granted Three Rivers 23/0220/TCA Works to trees in a conservation area

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Pine - back left corner- Take down to ground. The tree is decaying and also failed limbs are falling out. Going over building behind the garden. Would recommend it to be taken down sooner than later. The photos don't do much justice to the application as the sun is facing the camera.

As published by the council, reference 23/0220/TCA

    196 Abbots Road Abbots Langley Hertfordshire WD5 0BP

    TPO760 T50 Mature oak tree has died. We request permission to remove all branches to just leave the main trunk. Over recent years the tree has been progressively later to come into leaf and earlier to lose its' leaves than the adjacent mature oak. This year the tree has not produced any leaves at all. A local tree surgeon, Tom from T's Trees has inspected the tree and does not believe the tree trunk to be hollow. Photo2 shows damage around the trunk, which may be related to the tree's death. This damage was there when the current owners moved in.
