    The proposed removal of less than 6m of Hedgerow is sought to facilitate the entry of plant to carry out essential refurbishment work upon the steel tower structures which form the AF Route 132kV overhead powerline.

Currently an existing 12ft gate provides access into agricultural grounds, with a further 12ft gate proposed to increase this to a double gated entrance.

What these statistics cover

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Westmorland and Furness 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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
