Street Record Springbank Gardens Loveclough Rossendale Lancashire
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
There is a sycamore tree on the green on Springbank Gardens, the green is D shaped and I own most of the green as shown on title number LAN178238, there is a part of the green that is not owned by me I presume this is council owned/ un adopted, on this part not on our title are 2 trees the sycamore trees branches hang down to less than 1 metre from the ground this is causing a risk to the children playing on the green and could cause a serious injury to an eye, we are looking for permission to prune the low hanging branches to reduce any health and safety risk from the tree to make the area a safe area for children to play. We are happy to undertake the pruning.
