Planning application

Shires Cottage Standedge Road Diggle Oldham OL3 5NB

Awaiting decision Oldham HHC/356782/26

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

Proposal

Lleylandii hedge has grown to 16 feet, restricts our view and places some of our front garden in the shade which results in rapid growth of moss and makes lawn maintenance very difficult.

As published by the council, reference HHC/356782/26
