10 Perry Close Whitby Ellesmere Port CH65 6AB
Oak tree - 1st crown lifted to remove small epicormic growth and the two lowest branches. One branch has interfered with the roof of a neighboring structure. The second is hanging low over the lawn. By removing these, the canopy will be raised without impacting on the aesthetics or overall shape. 2nd crown reduction via thinning by approx. 20%, this can be achieved by selecting appropriate pruning points that will allow the tree to branch naturally going forward and reducing the likelihood of excessive secondary growth. Also providing a smaller and less dense canopy.

Churton Lodge Chester Road Churton by Aldford Chester CH3 6LA
One pine at the entrance to Churton Lodge shown circled in red in the photo. This is a very overmature tree with three huge bottom limbs. Their used to be another pine behind this one which blew down as a result it lack and limbs on this side to help balance the tree. My fear is these limbs will either rip off due to their size and result in the loss of tree or cause it to fall down like its sister tree. I would like to just remove these three limbs to try and prevent this.

26/02826/CAT Awaiting decision
269B Chester Road Hartford Northwich Cheshire West And Chester CW8 1LP
Tree Species: Yew (Taxus baccata) Proposed Works: Fell the tree to ground level and remove the stump. Section 211 Notice of Intent (Trees in a Conservation Area) Tree Identifier: T1 (Yew) Approximate Dimensions: Height: 30 feet (approx. 9 meters) | Crown Spread: width 15 feet Location: Situated on the property boundary, leaning significantly over the shared driveway between 269B Chester Road, Hartford, Northwich Cheshire CW8 1LP and 269 & 269C. Current Condition & Justification: The tree is located within a Conservation Area but is not subject to an individual Tree Preservation Order (TPO). The tree exhibits a pronounced lean directly over a high-use, shared vehicle and pedestrian access route. This lean compromises the structural stability of the tree relative to its target zone, creating a safety hazard for residents and vehicles using the driveway. Felling is proposed to eliminate the risk of failure over this shared infrastructure. Detailed Specification of Works: Sectional Felling: Dismantle the tree section-by-section to ground level using controlled rigging techniques to protect the shared driveway surface, adjacent boundary walls, and properties. Stump Removal: Grind out the stump to approximately 300mm below ground level to prevent regrowth and allow the ground to be safely reinstated. Site Clearance: Remove all timber, woodchips, and arisings from the site, leaving the area safe and clear.

26/02819/TPO Awaiting decision
2 Hadrian Way Cuddington Northwich Cheshire West And Chester CW8 2JR
After consultation with a qualified arborist (Alex Davies from AJD Tree Care, Sandbach) regarding several trees on our property, he recommended the following actions (please refer to sketch map for the location of the affected trees T1, T2, T3 and T4) T1 Copper Beech TPO V/81/00175/ORD Tree No 9 Crown Lift to raise the lower small branches which overhang the pavement and are currently at head height in places T2 and T3 Sycamore Conservation Area owned by Church Crown Lift to remove the lower branches which overhang the garden of 2 Hadrian Way and are currently at head height in places T4 Sycamore Conservation Area joint owned by Church and 2 Hadrian Way Crown Lift to remove lower branches which overhang the garden of 2 Hadrian Way and are currently scraping the garage roof. The wind causes the branch to bang the roof which we believe will increase the likelihood of structural damage in bad weather. We have only been in this property for about 6 months but we recall that the previous owners suffered damage to the garage roof from a falling branch some years ago - presumably the same tree. We have spoken to the Church Warden (Ali Fletcher) about the proposed work, and on behalf of the church, she is happy for the work to proceed from her perspective.
