  • 19/03506/TPO Granted

    21 Mason Close Great Sutton Ellesmere Port CH66 2GU

    V/54/20023/ORD OAK GROUP NO 13 - Single old hedgerow oak is located within the rear garden of this property. Proposed to Crown lift by:- Cutback/remove as necessary dead/diseased or damaged lower branches Cutback/remove as necessary any other lower branches To provide a clearance above ground level of no more than 5m to allow for the passage of large farm machinery on the field side with a matching clearance in the garden to ensure a similar natural shape and balance to the trees form. To control the hazard of falling branches and promote regrowth in the upper crown its proposed to undertake a crown thin of dead/diseased or damaged branches in the 25% area of the tree area currently affected by decline. Whilst the removal of dead and diseased wood does not normally require consent its expected that a limited amount of viable wood will need to be cut during the work and thinning works to obtain the consistant ground clearance and natural balance and shape for the tree that is sort. Its for this work that advice and consent has been sort
