Planning application

9 Park Gates Drive Cheadle Hulme Stockport SK8 7DD

Granted Stockport DC/099589 Tree Works In A Conservation Area

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

There are two trees of concern. 1 A large magnolia in our front garden which requires pruning as the outer branches are growing into overhead wires, crown reduce by up to 3m 2 A very large Beech tree at the back of the garden which also needs pruning. My partner, who has lived here since the 1970?s remembers it last being pruned about 40 years ago. It is casting the back garden in permanent shade. The Beech tree shares the border of 3 properties (number 1, 7 and 9 Park Gates Drive, SK8 7DD). Matthew Thompson (Arborist) has visited the garden and advised that the trees should be crown reduced by up to 3m, crown lifted and thinned by 10%. HAR/CA29.

    Two Beech trees T36 and T37 in the plan. These Trees have been dead for a number of years and now pose a very significant risk to human life including my family and grand children. These dead trees need to be felled or all branches need to be removed. We are unable to replant new trees because these trees are within a few inches next to a brick wall, we can only replace them with normal garden plants. TPO 344W.
