Council planning record
Lavender Mead Wonston Road Wonston Sutton Scotney Winchester Hampshire SO21 3LR
Council milestones and published deadlines. A deadline passing does not confirm a decision.
We have recently moved into the property and would like to remove a horse chestnut tree (pink blossom) from our garden to help with damp problems in the house and because the tree itself is suffering from rot. The tree was previously consented for removal under planning application 21/00479/TPC but was never removed - this application was made by a previous owner of the property. The original reason for removal was extensive rot. We have recently consulted a tree surgeon who agreed that it should be removed.
