    Take out top of sycamore due to its position and health. There are a number of cavities in it and it is into bedrock which seems to restrict it. Weight taken out of the top would help as it leans a lot. Paul Johnson (Tideswell) and recommended about 20 feet off the top down to a fork in the tree trunk.

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Peak District National Park Authority, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.

The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
