26/01239/TW - Tree Works to TPO Registered

Proposal

T1; Scots Pine - Fell. Reason: Deadwood contained within the crown, thinning of needles within the crown. The tree has significant lean that the client is confident has worsened in the last year. There is evidence of this at the base of the tree where a patio installed prior to my client's purchase of the property a year ago is now showing signs of lift. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 8

Isle Of Wight National Landscape
Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.
Previously an area of outstanding natural beauty, which is still the designation in law. Since 2023 authorities must seek to further its purpose, not merely have regard to it.
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
SSSI 110 m away: Compton Down SSSI
Natural England may need consulting, depending on what is proposed.
Sites of special scientific interest are the best wildlife and geological sites in the country. Development likely to harm one is rarely permitted.
Also on the record
Special area of conservation 415 m away: South Wight Maritime; 1 listed building within 150 m; Inside the Ventnor built-up area; Heritage coast 222 m away: Tennyson; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 5, 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 2 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England 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.
