What this application is

Species: OakWork: Crown reduction

This TPO application concerns a oak tree in Redditch and proposes crown reduction. The council will assess the impact on public amenity and the tree's health before deciding whether to consent, refuse, or grant with a lighter specification.

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: T1 Oak Crown reduction by approximately 2 metres. Crown thinning to reduce wind loading and improve crown structure. Removal of all dead wood throughout the crown. Removal of ivy from the main stem and primary scaffold…. The application was received by Bromsgrove and Redditch on 11 August 2026.

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.
