Awaiting decision West Northamptonshire 2026/0775/TPO Works to Trees (Preservation Order)

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Propose to remove and dispose of fallen tree as lying across two gardens and roots no longer in ground. Would like to prune back some of the remaining trees for general safety maintenance.

As published by the council, reference 2026/0775/TPO
