    The tree is a Norway Spruce. It is dead. The tree has had a thick rope tied round its trunk for several years by unknown previous occupants of Dale Fields. This rope has completely cut through the bark all round the trunk 1m from ground level: in effect, it has been ring-barked. There are no signs of life above or below this damage: no shoots, no sprouts. All the needles have been shed. The tree is located approximately 4m of the public highway and within 1.5m of public access routes to Dale Fields and neighbouring Dale Farm. As it becomes more brittle and structurally unsound over time it will lose branches and possibly fall over. In addition, its sad, brown, dead state does not contribute to the historic or current quality of Grindon Conservation area. If it were in a safer location it could be felled and left to decay naturally, but I feel removal is necessary. Replacement would both enhance scope for biodiversity and the aesthetics of the site. I am happy to plant a... read more

    30% thinning in 0.3acre area of woodland adjoining the house and within the property boundary. Comprising young trees in a high stocking density. Approximately 30-40 trees will be felled. The woodland is on a south facing slope which falls down to the house and garden and is bordered by a footpath on the north side. The species to be felled will be ash, sycamore and spruce as well as coppiced wych elm. All trees are below 300mm DBH. The woodland has not been managed for over 25 years and there are some diseased ash within it. If you look at '2025 10 17 The Cottage Milldale Satellite View' you can see how the tree density is higher in the woodland on this property compared to the adjoining woodland on the neighbouring property, to the west, indicating the lack of recent management. The overarching aim of the tree felling is to release the favoured trees to encourage healthy canopy growth and aid with the ongoing monitoring and management of these trees, which, due t... read more

    Veteran sycamore on the left hand side of the driveway to Grange Farm. Height 25 metres, Dbh 1.1 metres, spread 15 metres. Old pruning wounds showing decay and several cavities, a few small branches have failed. Due to the size and weight of the limbs, various cavities, proximity to the Farm and the main road through Wheston the trees longevity would be increased with a reduction. Work required - 30% reduction (8 metres height, 5 metres sides)

What these statistics cover

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.
