PA/2026/0817 - Consent under Tree Preservation Orders Under Consultation

Proposal

T1 Turkey Oak Supply tree surgery services, machinery, equipment, and suitably qualified personnel to undertake the sectional felling of the Oak tree. The tree has a large area of decay at the base of the main stem, extending approximately 12 inches into the stem. Due to the extent of the decay and the associated structural concerns, sectional felling is recommended to safely remove the tree. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 6

Registered park or garden about 28 m away: Ascot Place
Its setting is a consideration for work nearby.
Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.
Historic England ↗
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
Inside the North Ascot built-up area; Green belt about 23 m away: London; Priority habitat about 28 m away: Deciduous woodland; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · 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.

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