Planning application

5 Woodside Heaton Mersey Stockport SK4 2DW

Granted Stockport DC/092453 Works To Trees Covered By A TPO

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

3 Lime trees near rear end of property (T1-T3) - Reduce in height by approximately 3 metres (to the point of the previous reduction) and shorten longer lateral side limbs by approximately 2 metres, to produce a solid crown formation. Remove epicormic shoots within the crown to thin the canopy. Crown lift the low drooping limbs by approximately 2 metres and remove any epicormic growth from the trunk. Remove deadwood 3cm+ in diameter. Reasons ? To control the size of the crown due to concerns over the overall size and height of the tree considering its proximity to the properties. The work is likely to be part of a cyclical pruning program that will be undertaken at around 5 yearly intervals to maintain the tree size. Also to improve sunlight access in garden. TPO 390W.

    3 Heath Crescent Cale Green Stockport SK2 6JN

    Pine - removal - tree species is very big for narrow back garden location. Difficult species to crown reduce to control size / maintenance. Concidering the garden has an other established tree and smaller stock we felt the removal was justified if tree was replaced with something smaller. HAR/CA36.
