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

Proposal

We currently have a tree just over our boundary line on the canal side, to which we have been made aware by one of the house boats is far too overgrown & tall. If this tree falls it could cause serious damage to the house boats in the nearby area, or worse.
