    On 27th November 2012 application 10/01128/C450 we applied to have a Horse Chestnut tree removed as it is diseased. The tree is leaning more towards the house now than it was then and the damage to the trunk is both deeper and longer now stretching for over half the trunk. I believe the disease is Canker. I can provide copies of the previous plans if you don't have them on file, or easily accessible. Please may someone assess the tree, for for own safety.

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
