Planning application

Spinney Bank House 17A Berkeley Street Sibbertoft LE16 9UF

Granted West Northamptonshire 2025/3610/TPO Works to Trees (Preservation Order)

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

The 3 yew trees with TPO's on sit amongst many a line of c. 12 other fir trees which collectively make a long hedge line that starts at the back of our property and ends near to the road along one side. Year on year they have been growing considerably, they are now huge and block both our light and that of our two neighbours either side. I would like to seek agreement to halve them in height to allow a regular tidy of them to be possible going forward. Our neighbours are in agreement with our request.
