26/42587/TWT - Tree Work in TPO Awaiting decision

Proposal

TPO 22 1975: Maple - Fell. This large maple has started to die back all over the crown. This tree needs to be felled as it's close proximity to the building and heavily weighted in that direction making it a high risk tree. Another maple should be planted as close to it's location as possible. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 5

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Public footpath 27 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.
1 listed building within 150 m
Nearest: Shawms, Grade II, 55 m away
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.
