INTENTION TO FELL TREE WITHIN THE BRIGG CONSERVATION AREA

Consent is being sought to remove a 30ft tall tree within the Brigg Conservation Area.
North Lincolnshire Council, as the local planning authority, has now received notice of intention to fell a False Acacia tree (also known as a Locust tree).
It is sited behind 3 Manor House Convent, Bigby Street, near the junction with St Clares Walk.
The council has been informed that the tree is close to a party garden wall shared with an adjoining property and is less than 16ft from the rear of a three-storey grade two listed building.

Planners are now considering the application from a Brigg resident who owns the tree. The Town Council will be consulted as part of the planning process.
