Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

  The work specification is to remove invasive rhododendron across Frodsham Woods, Frodsham Hill, Woodhouse Hill and Snidley Moor. The rhododendron will be cut as close to ground level as possible, Eco-plugs will be applied to the cut stumps every 3cm of stem diameter. In order to access the rhododendron, some natural regeneration and trees may have to removed. Where possible, the removal of mature trees will be avoided. The woodlands are under an approved Forestry Commission Management Plan, with the majority covered within the attached Felling Licence(s). Sub compartment 2a (2.64Ha) of Frodsham Woods is located within the Dunsdale Hollow SSSI. As part of the wider operation, we are planning to remove the rhododendron in this area, subject to consent from Natural England. A part of this sub compartment is not currently within the approved Felling Licence, therefore we are requesting permission to remove trees/ natural regeneration if necessary.

  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.
