Description

We wish to reduce the height and canopy of the Lime tree (Tilia spp) marked as T2 on the plans by about 20% (approx 2 metres). The tree was inspected in October 2024 by the council tree officer who agreed that pollarding would be an effective way to manage this large tree. The tree gets infested with aphids each year which drip honey dew which develops into sooty mould covering a large part of the garden so we are looking to manage this issue whilst maintaining the health of the tree.

Site constraints 4

Pembroke and Princes conservation area
Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.
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 ↗
Radon affected area, class 5
An estimated 10 to 30% of homes reach the radon action level. Indicative for the 1 km square, which takes the highest class found in it; a radon test gives the answer for a building.
From the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency indicative atlas. Under building regulations, as the BRE guide BR 211 (2023) sets out, new buildings and extensions need basic radon protection from class 3 in England and Wales and from class 2 in Scotland, and full protection from class 5. The class at the site itself, from the detailed BGS map, decides which.

Checked on 1 November 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area.

A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
