Summary
The proposal seeks to remove three conifer trees at Burn Bank. No replacement planting is mentioned.
The site is in the historic part of Burgh by Sands and the Solway Coast protected landscape. Hadrian's Wall and its earthworks are about a 1-minute walk away.
Six nearby property fronts have a clear view of the site, while 115 are screened by buildings. The loss of the trees could change local views and the area's leafy feel.
