Approved on 8 September 2026

Council decision: Tree Application - No objection

Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

Walnut tree planted by ourselves approx. 20 years ago - we want to 'uplift' the tree by removing the lowest 6 branches. The branches are significantly overhanging the kitchen roof of our house, rubbing against the flue to our Woodburner in our kitchen/diner and casting shade over our greenhouse making it impossible to grow anything.
