Chailey Place Chailey Green Road Chailey Green East Sussex BN8 4DA
Approved on 28 January 2020
Council decision: No Objection
Proposal
The tree is a lime tree next to the white gate entrance to the property. It is just off the A275 and has outgrown its neighbours. We would like to reduce its height back to the previous pollarding to improve its shape and maintain it as a healthy tree. This is also for safety reasons to reduce the likelihood of it being blown over.
