Planning history
Applications and permits filed against 1 Rectory Cottage, Main Street, Cotesbach, Lutterworth, LE17 4HZ, sourced from the PlanIt planning register.
Planning history at 1 Rectory Cottage is exclusively tree-management applications — typical for a property with mature trees on or near the plot.
- Apr 2024Tree WorksTreesGranted
Oak- crown reduce by 2-2.5 metres. Beech – crown reduce by approx..3 metres. The reason for this application is because the oak tree has become extremely tall and top heavy, and appears dangerous to surrounding houses, including our own. In addition to this, these 2 trees block almost all sunlight from our garden and house. By reducing the crown by 1/3 would help light come through without affecting the trees. The beech tree is also reaching our bathroom window, so will need to be removed.
