Planning application
51 Beech Road Cale Green Stockport SK3 8HD
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
I moved into 51 Beech Road late last year. The tree in my front garden is growing in between the phone lines and the roots are lifting the flag stones on the driveway making it dangerous to walk on. They are causing a trip hazard if me or my partner take out the recycling or want to access the car. Also, the branches are touching the house. I can see where the tree has been previously cut back to and would like to do that again. I have spoken with the neighbours who have informed me it hasn't been touched for a few years so really needs cutting back. I don't know what sort of tree it is. It's the only one in the garden. HAR/CA36.

T1 - Fraxinus excelsior, a crown lift and a crown thin. Presently the crown is unbalanced and it would benefit from a crown lift to correct the one sided crown there is at the present. Also the tree is suffering from the first stages of ash die back and would benefit from a crown thin. - HAR/CA36

7 Heath Road Cale Green Stockport SK2 6JJ
T1 - Mature ash tree - Removal by sectional dismantling. The stem will be left where it splits into multiple stems and treated with eco plugs to leave a monolith to provide a habitat for mammals, small birds, invertebrates and food for detritivores. The top of the stem will be finished with coronet cuts to encourage decay. The tree is located at the very rear of the garden of 7 Heath Road and is little amenity value due to its position. The tree hangs over the garden of 20 Beech Road, and causes excessive leaf litter, shade, and pigeon poo for the owners of 20 Beech Road. The 2 parties have agreed that it can be removed pending permission. HAR/CA36, TPO 87N.
