Planning application

Wisteria Cottage Dunstan Lane Neston CH64 8TL

Granted Cheshire West and Chester 19/02802/TPO Application to fell/lop TPO trees

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Scots Pine (T5) - Dead - Survey recommended "Reduce in height to 4 metres for wild life value" Oak Quercus robur (T7) - Tree leaning east with a crown extending to neighbours property, over a powerline. A high canopy on north west side. when stepping close to base of tree it was notice that earth and roots had risen. A hollow resounding sound was heard when forceful steps were made. Survey recommended "A crown reduction by 30% concentrating mainly on the east side." Oak Quercus robur (T18) - Tree in decline leaning heavily. Survey recommended "Remove." Chamaecpryris lawsoniana - (G2) - Survey recommended - "Reduce in height by 4 m." For clarification we would like to confirm these are not in the area covered by the Tree Preservation order as they are on the edge of/outside of the mature oaks/scots pine planting and are suspected to be hedging which has not been controlled. We would like to completely remove the three trees in G2 if they are not subject to a TPO and replace with Laurel/Rhododendron hedging.
