   Decision issued: Consent given on work to Tree apps

3. 19 Aug 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

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.

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.

  Pollard 2 x Sycamores reduce them down to approx 8.0m high. they are approximately 30 metres high currently i GPC Tree Surgeons has identified one tree in section G28 of the TPO740 as a macrocarpa tree and the TPO calls the tree an Atlantic Cedar. Proposal is to remove broken branches hanging in the trees see photo IMG_0559 which was snapped off in the snow storms 2 years ago, it is now dead and in risk of falling out unexpectedly so could injure anyone underneath and or damage the shed below the tree. In addition the proposal is to remove the widow makers (dead branches ) in the cedar trees. that are at risk of falling out unexpectedly damaging the sheds and greenhouse below or and injuring anyone below. I have had two benches smash into my green house recently and a branch fell on the shed when I was in it which has prompted me to get them sorted. For clarity I do not propose to cut down or remove any trees. I am using GPC Tree Surgeons to undertake this work se quote quote_02-03-2021_19_57
