92% historically approved · decision due ~2 Sep
Notification of proposed works to trees within Rivington Conservation Area -T2 - Beech- Propose lateral reduction of overhanging branches by up to 2.5 metres, back to appropriate growth points to clear the house (a listed building), as the shedding and shade is causing mildew to develop on the render, and the falling branches are over a pathway and dangerous; this work was previously undertaken with permission in April 2023 and we would like to repeat it (ref. 23/00200/TCON). T5 - Laburnum - Propose to remove 2 of 8 established stems to improve ambient natural light to the front garden. T6 - Tulip Tree - Propose minimal lateral reduction of overextended lower branches by up to 2 metres to reduce the weight of overextended limbs and prevent wind-throw or branch failure over the front garden.

19 Chancery Fields Euxton Chorley PR7 1DG
Application for work to a protected tree - Chorley BC TPO 5 (Euxton) 2013; Consent is sought for the removal of the mature ash tree located within the rear garden of the property, together with stump treatment or stump removal as appropriate. The tree subject to this application is identified on the Tree Preservation Order schedule and associated plans as an oak tree. However, the tree is clearly an ash tree. This discrepancy is noted as it may indicate an error in the original identification of the protected tree. The tree occupies a prominent position within the garden and is situated in close proximity to residential properties, including both the applicant's property and neighbouring dwellings. The ash tree is exhibiting multiple signs of significant decline, disease and structural weakness. Extensive fungal growth around the base of the trunk and along the root system. Visible splitting and cracking within the stem and major structural sections of the tree. Evidence of decay affecting the lower trunk and root area. A pronounced lean and asymmetrical growth habit, resulting in a heavily weighted crown. General indications of poor health and declining condition. The presence of fungal fruiting bodies, together with visible structural defects, suggests that deterioration is affecting the tree's stability and structural integrity. The tree has recently been inspected by a professional tree surgeon who advised that the tree is diseased, structurally compromised and potentially dangerous. The recommendation was that the tree should be removed due to the risk of failure.
