10 Hooley Range Heaton Moor Stockport SK4 4HU
The tree under application is an Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), designated as T70 on the Stockport Council TPO/Conservation Area mapping system. The resident initially requested an assessment for full tree removal following two distinct structural failures: one instance where a failing limb nearly caused personal injury, and a separate incident resulting in property damage to a private vehicle parked on the driveway. 2. Arboricultural Assessment A ground-level visual inspection of T70 was conducted on 22/5/2026. The tree currently exhibits good physiological health, particularly when contextualized against the regional prevalence of Ash Dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus) and symptoms appear limited to a potential Stage 1 infection. The inspection revealed no structural defects at the base, with an absence of basal cavities or fungal fruiting bodies. 3. Proposed Works and Justification While the resident favors removal to mitigate risk, complete removal is disproportionate given the tree?s current vitality and high amenity value within the Heaton Moor Conservation Area. To mitigate the risk of ongoing limb shedding while preserving the tree, it is proposed to crown reduce/pollard the specimen by 30% to 40%. The reduction will significantly decrease wind-loading, reduce leverage on individual branches, and safely retain the tree within its urban setting. 4. Replacement Planting The resident hasn't provided definitive instructions regarding a replacement tree. However, following discussions, they are environmentally conscious and receptive to the idea of replanting a suitable replacement, should the council deem it a necessary condition of the permitted works. HAR/CA15, TPO 14N.
