Planning application

26/01072/TPO

Cliff Cottage Kings Lane Cookham Maidenhead SL6 9AY

Granted Windsor and Maidenhead Works To Trees Covered by TPO

Proposal

T1 Cupressus macrocarpa - Remove the specific split/fractured branches identified in the photos (those with fracture points and hazard beam features) though some are currently propped by adjacent stems; taking these out cleanly may expose additional weaknesses above, so these limbs are to be reduced. Once those defects are removed, undertake an end weight reduction to newly exposed or compromised sections to restore structural balance as follows: South and West aspects (over Cliff Cottage): approx. 2.5-3.5m on the over extended and compromised sections only. East aspect: approx. 1.5- 2.0m where limbs extend beyond the general crown outline. Height: approx. 1.5-2.0m on select leaders only if required to re balance following defect removals. North aspect: minimal intervention beyond defect removal and deadwood, as this side is already thinned by the failure. Prune to give up to 3m clearance above ground level, 3m clearance to the roof, and 0.5m clearance over the hedges. Remove major dead branches as specified. (012/2018/TPO).

What a grant of permission means

The process from here

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
