26/03277/TPO - Application to fell/lop TPO trees Awaiting decision

Proposal

Please see the attached Tree Survey Report for full details of the proposed works and reasons for removal. Trees 1, 2, 3 and 5 are in rapid decline, with extensive deadwood, evidence of decay and a history of branch or crown failures. They are located adjacent to or within falling distance of a regularly used track, creating an unacceptable risk to public safety. Tree 4 is a dead twin-stemmed tree leaning towards the track and is likely to have significant structural and root decay. The proposed works are necessary to address safety concerns and reduce the risk of tree failure. No replacement planting is proposed, as the site contains numerous existing trees and benefits from ongoing natural regeneration through self-seeded saplings. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 4

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
Inside the Davenham built-up area; Priority habitat about 44 m away: Deciduous woodland; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 15 October 2026.

A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
