Planning application
12 Woodlands Avenue Chester CH1 4AT
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Hybrid Black Poplar (T1) - prune tree by least 5m to reduce excessive bulk, maintain its health and landscape value and reduce risk of damage or injury to properties and residents. Reduce height by 5m or to previous pollarding point and correct lop-sided shape which causes tree to severely overhang gardens of 11 and 12 Woodlands Avenue, putting excessive strain on branches which resulted in 10m bough falling in garden of no. 11 and 7m bough in garden of no. 12. Remove all dead or damaged branches.

Mature Lime tree (T1) - Dead wooding works throughout the whole tree for duty of care; alongside a crown congestion clean. Mature Yew tree (T2) - Dead wooding works and crown raising to 2.1-2.4m over footpath due to the tree blocking access to the footpath. Mature Cherry tree (T3) - Dead wooding works, removal of ivy from base and continual monitoring of the tree to see if the decline worsens. If this is the case, we would then recommend a full removal and if possible, plant a replacement of a similar tree. Mature Beech tree (T4) - A coronet cut to speed the process of healing along for the tree. Conifer (T5) - Crown raise, and removal of 1.8-2.2m to allow access to gutters for property maintenance.
