Local Planning Authority: South Cambridgeshire District Council
Proposal: Conifer / hawthorn / elder hedging (H1) – reduce height of Eastern boundary hedging to approximately 8ft in line with historic height. Works intended to provide a more manageable hedge, prevent interference with public highway (Paddock Row) and improve light of Brookside and neighbouring properties. Section has previously been kept as hedge but allowed to become overgrown by previous owner.
Removal of Conifer Trees (T1) – Fell to near ground level. The two trees have been left to grow too large for the location, they take up unnecessary space in the garden and significantly block light to north.
Removal of Conifer Hedge (H2) – Fell to near ground level. Hedge is non-boundary hedge and has become too large for location.
Removal of Conifer Hedge (H3) – Fell to near ground level. Hedge is non-boundary hedge in a flower bed adjacent to a garden patio and been allowed to grow excessively large, swamping other plants. Intend to replant area with bedding plants.
