Planning Application

What this application is

This TPO application proposes work to a protected tree in Bromsgrove and Redditch. Because the tree is subject to a Tree Preservation Order, written consent is required before any work is carried out.

Trees protected by a Tree Preservation Order cannot be pruned, reduced or felled without written consent from the council. This application is a request for that consent, usually because the tree is close to a property, showing signs of decline, or in need of routine crown management.

The applicant's own description is: The application is for one tree. The tree sits on the border of Beoley Hall and The Orangery, approx 6 foot from the party wall. The extent of the the work is minor in cutting over hanging branches which are over our ne…. The application was received by Bromsgrove District and Redditch Borough Council on 27 October 2025 and is currently marked pending consideration on the council register — see what that status means.

If you want to respond

Neighbours are formally notified only for trees inside a conservation area, but anyone can comment during the consultation window. Comments should focus on the tree's amenity value, health, or the impact of the proposed work — not the identity of the owner.
