Planning application

Millen House Old Chorleywood Road Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 4EH

Granted Three Rivers 23/1347/TPO Works to trees covered by a Tree Pres O

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T2 identified in the attached Arboricultural report is the tree that these works relate to. The Crown is in decline, major deadwood present throughout, lowest branch to Northeast has extensive wounding to upper side. We would like to remove the dead wood and carry out a Crown reduction of about 1.5m-2m to tidy up the tree, allow some natural light into Plot1 and ultimately to maintain the tree. The deadwood is a risk and from the report it is evident that the damage to the tree is terminal and could pose a risk in the future.

As published by the council, reference 23/1347/TPO
