Description

This application relates to 10 Church road, Mellor, Stockport SK6 5PR. The cottage and the layout of the garden behind the property is indicated on sketch plan1.None of the trees have a TPO but the cottage is in the Moor End conservation area.The application relates to tree no 3 on the plan. This is a cherry prunus, approximately 6 metres in height. We are proposing to remove this tree.The reasons for this are:- The tree is within 2 metres of the property and is of a significant size. We have been advised by a tree surgeon that the tree will in the future cause problems for the property. The tree's branches already significantly overhang the cottage roof and the leaves cause significant problems blocking guttering. We are concerned about the damage roots will cause the cottage.- The tree is in close proximity to several other trees as sown on the sketch plan. Most notably it is about 4 metres from a large maple (tree no 1), about 4 metres from a large beech (tree no 4) and about 5 metres from a very large sycamore (tree no 6). The four trees create a continuous canopy over the garden, as shown in photo 1. We propose to replace tree no 3 with a fruit tree who's size is more appropriate for the garden. HAR/CA22.
