   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.

  The proposed works comprise a selective crown prune to an established apple tree (Malus domestica) in order to manage excessive branch growth and maintain structural integrity, tree health, and amenity value. Works will include the removal of dead, diseased, damaged, crossing, and poorly formed branches, together with a targeted crown reduction to control overextended lateral and vertical growth. Reduction cuts will be made back to suitable secondary growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work ? Recommendations. The pruning will result in an overall reduction of the crown by approximately 20?30%, maintaining a balanced, natural form consistent with the species. No topping or indiscriminate branch removal is proposed. The tree?s primary framework and physiological function will be retained. All works will be undertaken by a competent arborist using appropriate tools and techniques to minimise stress and avoid unnecessary wounding. The proposed works are intended as routine arboricultural management and will not adversely affect the long-term health, stability, or contribution of the tree to local amenity.

  THIS APPLICATION REFERS TO 2 TREES POSSIBLY MAPLE OR SYCAMORE, THE REASON FOR THIS APPLICATION IS THAT THIS IS A CONSERVATION AREA. I WOULD LIKE THE TREES REMOVED COMPLETELY FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS. THE TREES ARE AT THE END OF MY GARDEN, THE TRUNK ON ONE OF THE TREES IS PUSHING THROUGH MY BORDER FENCE PANEL WHICH NOW NEEDS REPLACING. THIS IS THE LARGEST OF THE TREES AND IS OVERHANGING 3 NEIGHBOURS GARDENS ON THE LEFT SIDE. ONE OF MY NEIGHBOURS IS ELDERLY AND CANNOT MANAGE THE LEAVES AND DEBRIS FROM THE TREE. THIS TREE ALSO SHADES NEIGHBOURS GARDENS TO BOTH SIDES.
