Condition Details / Information Notes
The tree works hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with BS 3998:2010 (Tree Work). Reason: To attempt to avoid damage to the tree or neighbouring trees, property and services and encourage best practice in planning works and safe operations.
The work must be carried out within two years from the date of this permission. Reason: As trees continue to grow, altering in shape and size, some works granted consent may become inappropriate and will require up to date assessment.
The works must be carried out by a suitably qualified tree professional. Reason: to ensure, as far as is possible, that damage to the tree or neighbouring trees, property and associated services is avoided and to ensure, as far as is possible, the adherence to best practice in the planning and execution of the tree works and the use of safe operational procedures.
No works shall commence until the applicant’s nominated contractor has discussed the works with the council’s tree and landscape officer. Contact should be made with the council no later than 7 days before works are to be carried out on the tree. Reason: To ensure that only works approved under this consent are undertaken.
Information and advice on appointing an appropriately qualified and experienced tree surgeon can be found on the Natural Environment pages of the Malvern Hills District Council website at the following address or alternatively contact the Landscape Officer 01684 862407. https://www.malvernhills.gov.uk/planning/heritage/the-natural-environment/choosing-a-tree-surgeon
All wild bird species are legally protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) from any form of disturbance between the onset of nest building and until such time as any dependent young have left the nest, principally from the beginning of March to the end of August.
Have you thought of planting a tree in your garden? Trees provide many benefits that includes their aesthetic value (they look nice), they can help slow surface water runoff which in turn helps to reduce flooding, they support wildlife, they can increase property value, they absorb carbon dioxide (carbon sequestration), they can improve air quality and they can improve mental wellbeing.
Proper watering is key to the successful establishment of newly planted trees. Water around the base of the tree regularly, ensuring the soil is moist but not soggy. Underwatering can stress a tree, leading to its poor health and potentially death. Water often, adjusting for rainfall. Consistent hydration during the first three growing seasons (March to September) encourages strong root growth and helps a young tree thrive. Early watering effort leads to successful establishment and to a self-sustaining healthy, resilient tree in the future.
Dead and decaying wood provides a nutrient-rich habitat for fungi, a nursery for beetle larvae and a larder for insectivorous birds and other animals. Deadwood comes in many forms, all of which has its part to play in arboricultural ecosystems. This includes fallen dead wood, standing dead wood, decaying stumps and roots, and rotting heartwood. Contrary to popular belief, retaining dead wood is not harmful to the host tree. Where possible, and where it would not compromise public safety, it is preferable if dead wood habitat is retained in the interests of wildlife.
