Planning application
Cranbrook 31 South Road Chorleywood Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 5AS
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Dismantle and remove Maple in decking area, tree is very close to the rear of the property, and continued reductions to maintain at a reasonable size have reduced the aesthetics of the trees. Previous historic landscaping has also resulted in some of the main stem being below surrounding ground level, which is having a negative impact on the health of the tree
