    To fell 5 no Cypress trees in rear garden of Westfield Cottage. The trees are causing serious shading issues to Westfield Cottage & other neighbouring properties. Also, causing serious issues with blocked gutters & drainpipes in the immediate adjacent properties, namely: The Smithy, The Workshops & The Blacksmiths. All owners have requested trees to be felled. The 5 no Cypress trees will be felled by a qualified arborist - Ecotrees of Sheffield. The Cypress trees are of low amenity value, are non-native and wholly inappropriate in a conservation area in the town of Bakewell, in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Once felled, the trees will be replaced with a native species hedgerow which will be maintained to a heigh of circa 2 metres once established. This will be of greater ecological benefit.

    I wish to carry out some maintenance (pollarding) on two trees to the rear of my property: 1st tree, silver birch which has a canopy that now covers most of the far right of the rear garden; 2nd tree, I understand this to be a Whitebeam which also has a canopy that covers a large area across the rear part of the garden and like the silver birch, has not been maintained for some time. There is also a tree which I believe to be a Ginkgo to the front of the property. This tree is leaning towards next door and I fear may be blown over with any strong winds, this will risk part of next doors property so I wish to remove this.

    Mature beech 20m high at the rear of the property set on a steep bank down to the river Noe. The river bank starts at the back of the house and drops 10m to the river below as such I do not want to remove the beech as its root system will be integral to the bank. However, the lower branches are laying heavily on the roof of the house and need to be cleared off. In addition the height of the tree needs reducing by 20% as it is very sparse. Six conifers to remove in the same location which will improve the amount of light getting to the beech.

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
