Council planning record

Last year I applied through this portal to: 1) crown T4 Oak in front garden of Delph Lodge 2) To remove the branch of T2 Poplar tree, which extends across Stoney Lane. This was because of safety concerns. Large branches fall off and could land on cars or pedestrians. 3) To fell tree T3- sycamore. This is due to light issues within the street and because by removing this tree it would create more light and allow one to see other beautiful trees behind it. Dave Thornber came to visit and to assess the above request. He agreed to request number 1). However he said he would prefer for us to fell the poplar tree T2, and to leave the sycamore tree in place T3. He agreed he would approve this if we submitted a new application. Unfortunately my husband has been seriously ill and we are only now in a position to submit.I did submit photos of the large branches that have fallen off the poplar tree with my last application , which you should still have
