Willow Cottage , Cloudside , Congleton , Staffordshire , CW12 3QQStaffordshire Moorlands

We propose to demolish an old, failing and now structurally unsound hardwood conservatory with pitched polycarbonate roof. And replace it with a thermally efficient, flat roofed, hardwood orangery with roof lantern. New stonework, windows, and door details will match the existing house to give a continuous look. Rainwater will be drawn away from the roof via hoppers and downpipes into existing soak-aways on either side. We will also replace existing footings to comply with current regulations. The use of the space will not change, but will become a much more usable space that will enhance our living environment and give a much more aesthetic appearance to complement the existing house, unlike the existing conservatory. Externally we propose the removal of a 1m high garden wall which will in part be replaced by steps leading to the driveway. Stonework from the removed walls will be utilised in creating the steps where possible. A mound of earth and rubble that has been grassed over to give the impression of a grassy hill (prior to us owning the property), will be removed to level out the garden and extend the drive. All this is intended to improve the visual aesthetic of the house and provide better access.

13 Longdown Road, Congleton, Cheshire East, CW12 4QHCheshire East

Reason for Works: The Sycamore tree has reached a size and condition that now presents concerns regarding safety, structural impact, and long‑term suitability for its location. The tree’s current growth is causing increased pressure on the surrounding area, including proximity to property boundaries and potential interference with structures and services. Due to its size and ongoing growth habit, the tree poses a foreseeable risk of branch failure, especially during adverse weather conditions. In addition, Sycamore is a vigorous species with a dense canopy and rapid regrowth, making ongoing management increasingly difficult within the confined space available. Removal is considered the most appropriate long‑term solution to prevent future safety issues and avoid repeated intervention. Proposed Works: Complete removal of the Sycamore tree to ground level. All works will be carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work – Recommendations, ensuring safe and controlled dismantling to protect the surrounding area. Replanting Proposal: A suitable replacement tree can be planted if required by the Local Planning Authority. Species can be discussed to ensure long‑term suitability for the site.
