Carriage House Carriage Drive Frodsham Cheshire WA6 6EB

Granted Cheshire West and Chester 19/03855/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

Requesting permission to perform general maintenance to trees at Carriage House primarily due to safety concerns after a branch falling from one of the larger trees and before we experience any high winds as the weather changes. Two of the trees overhang a drive to the house and a shared access road were my kids play and neighbours access there properties, I am looking to have the works to done as soon as possible as I am worried about safety if we have any high winds. The person that has visually inspected the trees has said they are nice trees but would benefit from maintenance work to protect their health and ensure they are safe. Tree 1 - Pine / Spruce tree - approx 70 feet tall. A large branch fell from this tree, I have had it visually inspected and the person identified another branch that is damaged and ready to fall. Requesting permission to prune the tree to take "the weight" from the top and make safe. Tree 2 - Pine / Spruce tree approx - 70 feet tall. Similar condition to Tree 1, I have had it visually inspected and the person suggested as it is a similar age, height and condition this also needs to be made safe. Requesting permission to prune the tree to take "the weight" from the top and make safe. Tree 3 - Oak Tree - approx 50 feet tall. From viewing plans, I do not think this falls within a tree preservation order. I have had the tree visually inspected and have been advised due to the size and volume of the tree it would benefit from attention to keep it healthy. Requesting permission to prune the tree to remove some volume from the larger branches to protect the tree from high wind, maintain its health / appearance and ensure it is safe.
