Planning application
West View Nicholson Lane PENRITH CA11 7UJ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
S211 Conservation Area tree works notification: 1 - Fell Flowering Cherry as is overshadowed by a mature fir, and as a result is stunted and unattractive. Mature and growing trees will remain to either side so no replanting is proposed. 2 - Fell Fir tree as topping appears to have taken place in the past, resulting in two weak co-dominant stems and the majority of growth taking place to the sides. 3 - Fell three Cypress Trees as each have been savagely topped in recent years, making them unsightly and growth now only takes place around their bases. 4 - Fell clump of Lime trees in order to provide better clearance to the property as their location means that both stem growth and root structure disrupts the adjacent garden wall and reduces light to the house, and propose to plant a shrub that is more suitable for that location.
