Council planning record

We want to remove a self seeded sycamore that is growing close to a wall. It is 110cm circumference 1.5 m. from the base. We are building a roof to take solar panels and the tree overhangs the roof. The angle required by the planning department will not allow leaves etc to fall off so the tree would reduce the capacity of the panels through debris as well as blocking light. We have planted eight trees in the last 4 years along with an orchard.
