18 June 2026 (statutory 8-week target)
Application type
Tree Preservation Order (TPO) work
Description
The property is being re developed, it currently has no roof. The new roof approved by planning last year Is an attic truss roof. This will require a crane to lift them into place. 2 branches overhanging the front of the property will prevent the crane from lifting them into position. Approx 8 to 10 ft of the 2 branches would need to be removed to allow this. The neighbouring property has a low horizontal branch which prevents the crane from getting the trusses through the existing gap between the 2 trees. Removal of the 2 branches on the tree in front of 116, would seem the best option. We are looking to install the roof in the next 2 weeks, so hopefully a decision can be reached, so that the build can continue.
