  • Planning Permission is needed for extensions and alterations.
 
 
  • In conservation areas trees with trunk diameters over 75mm are protected. The Council must be notified in writing 6 weeks in advance of any intended tree work unless the trees are dead, dying or dangerous. In such cases a replacement tree must be planted.
