Planning application

Gallants Bower (National Trust woodland) Castle Road Dartmouth TQ6 0JN

Granted West Devon 3819/24/TPO Works to a TPO Tree

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T2-T6: x 5 Ash – Fell trees to ground level as they have greater than 50% canopy loss due to Ash dieback & to reduce risk to any cars & campervans that may be parked along road below, T3 is also showing signs of base decay & has visible fruiting bodies present. T1: Larch – Fell to ground level as it’s showing a severe lack of canopy growth to again reduce risk of it failing & posing a danger to people parked/camping on the road below.

As published by the council, reference 3819/24/TPO
