DM/0639/23/TPO - Works to a tree with a TPO Pending Consideration
Trees & landscaping

Proposal

The trees overhanging the lane which are causing an obstruction to my neigbour's route away from his property with his caravan are T163 and T162. These are situated in the hedge boundry that runs along Waithe Lane. There are a few lose branches which have only recently dropped to the height from the road they are currently. The branches from T163 are approximately 5 feet above the road. The branches from T162 are approximately 8 feet above the road. These branches are very few in number (only 2 or 3 max I estimate), are at the very extremity and are very fine/flimsy. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 3

National infrastructure project 223 m away: Hornsea Offshore Wind Farm (Zone 4) - Project Two
The site is 223 m from the project boundary. Generating station, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: Hornsea Offshore Wind Farm (Zone 4) - Project One (decided, 223 m); Viking CCS Pipeline (decided, 340 m); Grimsby to Walpole (at pre-application, the site is inside its boundary).
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.

Also on the record
Inside the Brigsley built-up area; 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 · Not green belt · No listed building at the site

Checked on 15 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate 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.
