Planning application
Access track north of Angerton Hall Farm KIRKBY-IN-FURNESS LA17 7XA
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Removal of less than 6m of hedgerow is sought to facilitate the entry of plant required to carry out essential refurbishment work upon the steel tower structures which form the AF Route 132kV overhead powerline. Condition based assessments upon the AF028 tower have determined that the structure is at the end of its functional life and in need of urgent upgrading. Currently an existing 10ft gate provides access into agricultural grounds, with a further 12ft gate proposed to increase this to a double gated entrance.
