Planning application

The Distaff Belmont Hill Newport Essex CB11 3RF

Awaiting decision Uttlesford UTT/26/2205/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

1 no. Ash - Re-pollard by reducing all regrowth back to the established previous pruning points from 4-5 years ago, resulting in an approximate reduction of 4m in height and 2m in lateral spread, preventing the development of increasingly large regrowth from the historic pruning points

As published by the council, reference UTT/26/2205/TPO
