Proposal
1 x Robinia (T1): section fell to ground level - less than 10m from building. Tree has been dropping some large, dead branches into the garden where children play. The roots are causing patio slabs to lift making a trip hazard. Also causing excess shading to neighbouring garden. Height 14.0mCrown spread 9.0mOfficer note: Tree Preservation Order (TPO) No. 523 (2025) was served by the Council on 30 September 2025. The tree is now legally protected. Although the applicant selected both TPO and Conservation Area on the application form, the submission was not accompanied by the technical information required under the Town and Country Planning (Tree Preservation) (England) Regulations 2012 (SI 2012 No. 605). Accordingly, the form was incorrectly validated and cannot be treated as a valid application for consent. A formal TPO application supported by appropriate arboricultural evidence and justification for the proposed works must be submitted before the Council can lawfully determine the application.
