About telecoms applications

How this application type works

Telecommunications applications cover masts, antennas and cabinets, most of which come forward as prior approval cases under permitted development rules. The council typically has 56 days to consider siting and appearance only. The need for the network itself is treated as established, so objections carry most weight where they address visual impact or siting.

    T1 - Large mature English Oak Tree: situated on the lawn behind Patio. This tree has an unbalanced crown, towards the rear of the property with very low limbs hanging over the neighbour's boundary. Also there is a cavity 3m from ground level. Due to the size and location I would recommend the upper house side crown to be reduced by approx. 2m to balance and lift up the lower limbs 4m for clearance over the garden. Finally to remove all dead and dying wood and stumps.

    T1 - Large Mature English Oak Tree: Crown has been suppressed with one side overhanging garden shed and school playing grounds. I would recommend crown reduction of 2m field side only to give clearance and reduce the risk of limb collapse. This would help reduce the crown also. Finally to remove any dead, dying wood and stumps; T2- Suppressed English Oak: This tree has a dying crown with extensive cavities at 1m and 3m from ground level. Due to its poor condition I would recommend section felling to ground level. Removing all arisings. Access to remove all arisngs via the school field would be best.
