4314.Clements.Moore.TPP) dated 26th March 2021, as prepared by Andrew Belson Arboricultural Consultant.

REASON
To ensure that only the recommended tree work is undertaken, so as to prevent unauthorised and unjustified tree works from being carried out, which would be to the detriment of the designated AONB.
4) Prior to development, all tree protection barriers shall be erected and positioned in strict accordance with the drawing and written specifications being shown on the "Tree Protection Plan /Method Statement" (Drawing No. 4314.Clements.Moore.TPP) dated 26th March 2021, as prepared by Andrew Belson Arboricultural Consultant. The tree protection barriers shall then remain securely in position throughout the entire course of development works.
