Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Swamp Cypress Tree at the bottom of our garden. Last cut back with permission in 2020. The tree is very large and overhangs into neighbours gardens - they are complaining about the size and the light it blocks from their gardens. We would like to reduce the crown by 2-3 meters.
As published by the council, reference 24/1014/TCA

7 Parsonage Road Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 1AE
Large Ash in back garden. Needs to be reduced down to how it was in the past (approx by 50-60%) 2-3m - how it was before the house was purchased in 2017. The tree is not covered by a TPO but it is in a conservation area. It is shading the whole garden for no 5, 7 & 9 so it needs to be be cut back to allow light to come through
