Cromdale Well Lane Ness Neston Cheshire West And Chester CH64 4AN

Awaiting decision Cheshire West and Chester 26/02750/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Beech Tree no 6 by front boundary of property (Cromdale)overhanging Well Lane and neighbouring gardens - As advised by our tree surgeon, Mat Hewitt from Cheshire ARB Ltd, this tree would benefit from the following work- crown lift up to 4-5 metres on lower branches and reduce the tree crown by up to 1.5 metres. This would reduce the weight of the branches and increase light to gardens.

As published by the council, reference 26/02750/TPO
