    A wild ash tree at the bottom of our garden is slowly pushing over our garden wall. We have spoken to two tree surgeons and they have both advised that there is little that can be done other than remove the tree. I have spoken to the land owner and they have said that if we get permission from the conservation office they are happy for us to have the tree removed. I have attached a location map of where the tree is, the tree itself, and the damage to our dry stone wall. Please can we get permission have the tree removed.

What these statistics cover

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Rossendale Borough Council, 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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
