2026/0395 - Works to trees in Conservation Area Approved

Proposal

Ash tree (T1) to be removed to ground level, current height approximately 14 meters. The tree is believed to be in decline as it has shown sparse foliage last year and keeps dropping dead wood. Also, according to a builder (hired by the owner), the roots are damaging the foundations of this listed building. Data via plota.co.uk
