Planning application

Hillcrest 13 Berks Hill Chorleywood Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 5AG

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
