NP26/0944 - Conservation Area Tree Work Approved

Proposal

Mature/Ancient ash tree on border of two properties: Chris and Sanjeev are property owners. Height 27m; spread 20m. Multiple limb tears over the last 15 years or so; lots of decay. Cavity at about 10m with jackdaws nesting in it. Diameter at breast height 1m 54. No dieback, some dead limbs as expected. I expect the tree is hollow for quite a distance judging by the cavities and sound test. Work required - reduce back to a monolith of 10-15m and leave to continue its decline safely.

Site constraints 8

Peak District National Park

The park authority decides applications here. Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.

Landscape, scenic beauty and wildlife carry great weight, and major development is only allowed in exceptional circumstances.

Hope conservation area

Also Hope. 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.

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 1

Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.

Radon affected area, class 6

An estimated 30% or more 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.

Also on the record

1 listed building within 150 m of the postcode pin; National infrastructure project about 88 m away: Peak Cluster CCS Pipeline, at pre-application; Inside the Hope (High Peak) built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) 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 6 October 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. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate, the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency (radon, contains BGS materials © UKRI) 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.
