Proposal

Ash tree (self seeded) - Fell Walnut - Fell One is a self seeded Ash tree that is now very tall but of greater concern is the now enormous walnut tree that is too big for my property and encroaching on the house. I have sought advice and been advised that both should be removed. The walnut tree is less than 5 metres from my house and over spilling into no 8. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 5

Public footpath 17 m away
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site: obstructing a path without a diversion order is an offence, and work cannot start until the order is confirmed.
Compiled from highway authority data, not the legal definitive map. A few authorities have not published, so no path shown is not proof there is none.
3 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: 4, Green End, Grade II, 33 m away · 3 Grade II
The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.

Historic England ↗
Conservation area 7 m away: Fen Ditton
The edge of the area; work outside it can still affect its setting.
The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.
Council document ↗
Also on the record
Inside the Fen Ditton built-up area; the 1970s provisional farmland map had this area as grade 4, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 11 September 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
