Land Adjacent To Manor Farm, The Street, Snailwell, Newmarket CB8 7LX
Approved on 12 November 2026
Council decision: Allow (TREE)
Proposal
T4 Ash - Prune branches back from the road, reducing by up to 2.5m in length. This is to stop the tree leaning too far and putting dangerous weight over the public highway due to base and lower main stem obscured by Ivy. Heavily suppressed by adjacent tree with vertical sweep into open space over road. Bark patterning indicative of ongoing load adaptation. Future growth with be biased over road. T5 Beech - Remove to ground level due to an active helical crack from the base to a significant cavity at 2.5m, alongside extensive major dieback and brittle deadwood in the upper canopy. T6 Norway spruce - Remove completely to ground level. This is because the tree is dead and is a falling safety hazard to surrounding trees due to dead tree within close proximity to others within derelict plantation. Base and stem obscured by ivy. T7 Beech - Remove to ground level due to extensive major dieback and retained brittle deadwood throughout the upper canopy
