Planning Application

What this application is

This TPO application concerns a oak tree in Bromsgrove and Redditch. Because the tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order, no work can go ahead without written consent from the council.

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: Red Oak T5 390633280680 30% reduction of crown. The application was received by Bromsgrove and Redditch on 04 September 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.
