Horse chestnut pruning proposed at 15A Austin Street

ImpactAutomated estimate

Summary

The applicant proposes to cut back a horse chestnut by 2.2 metres. The tree would be cut to points used during earlier pruning, most recently about four years ago. The tree stands at 15A Austin Street, in King's Lynn's protected historic area. Ten protected old buildings are within about a 1-minute walk, including 15A Austin Street itself and Austin House. Only six property fronts within a couple of minutes' walk have a direct view of the site. The work could still affect how the tree looks beside nearby old buildings.

What you can do

You can comment to the council using reference 26/00049/TREECA before it makes a decision. Comments should explain any concerns about the tree, nearby old buildings, or the look of Austin Street. The council cannot consider effects on house prices.
