We have concerns about an oak tree nearby which has a TPO and is within the policies as listed deemed

to close to build.  Also concerned about a note on the plan for a 5m access which is not achievable.

Highways need to look at this closely as half of the 5m on the plan is private land belonging to number

15, therefore the access can be no more than 2.5m.
