Planning application
Home Farm Ledsham Village Ledsham Chester CH66 0NE
Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
Removal of two Ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) due to advanced Ash dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus) causing significant crown decline and structural weakness. Both trees present an increasing safety risk to nearby highway and boundary. Disease progression is irreversible. Works are required on safety grounds. Replacement native planting will be provided.
