Planning application
4 New Beech Road Heaton Mersey Stockport SK4 3AR
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1) Tree of Heaven (Ailanthus altissima) - remove diseased tree to ground level. Tree is dying off rapidly with several totally dead branches and extensive loss of bark on the branches and trunk. There are several utility cables close to the tree and parking spots so we would like to remove the tree from a cherry picker before branches start falling and damaging things.HAR/CA14
