Planning application

42 Elizabeth Crescent Chester CH4 7AZ

Granted Cheshire West and Chester 24/02478/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

1x oak (just outside the eastern boundary of 42, Elizabeth Crescent) - crown reduction of approximately 2 metres. The ivy infestation is to be removed by severing the ivy at the base of the trunk. The crown can be rebalanced (currently the crown is down to ground level on the eastern side of the tree) and it is proposed to carry out crown cleaning, removing a small amount of dead wood.
