Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Ash tree in location 28, had signs of ash dieback in June 2024 (75 - 100% crown cover). We have had our arborist have a look at the tree after concerns from our Site Manager. The tree surgeon has suggested felling the tree due to the ash dieback which will reduce risk to site users.
