Quarry Cottage 15 Delph Lane Aughton Ormskirk Lancashire L39 5EBAwaiting decisionT1 - Sycamore T1 - Crown Remove the lowest lateral branches overhanging the garden shed and clear epicormic growth from the lower stem below the pruning points. Works are intended to provide clearance from the shed and prevent ongoing interference with the structure while retaining the natural crown form. T2 - Sycamore Tree (Crown Raising and Selective Pruning) - Crown Crown raise by removing three lower lateral limbs, one substantial limb overhanging the neighbouring property and two smaller lower limbs overhanging the garden. Works are intended to improve clearance, reduce encroachment and maintain the overall balance and structure of the crown. G1 - Roadside Tree Group (Delph Lane Boundary) - Fell Fell and remove two beech trees, including one semi-mature dual-stemmed specimen, one young oak and five young sycamores growing alongside the roadside boundary wall. The trees are established in shallow soil over an underlying sandstone outcrop, which may restrict root development as they mature. Given their proximity to the boundary wall and public highway, concerns exist regarding their long-term suitability and the potential consequences of instability. The previous failure of a nearby poplar provides additional site context. Treat the remaining stumps with Eco-Plugs or an equivalent approved herbicide treatment to prevent regrowth. G2 - Quarry Boundary Group of Sycamores - Crown Undertake a crown height reduction to two single-stem and one multi-stem sycamore, reducing their overall height by approximately 10?15 feet towards the level of the house extension roof apex. Remove no more than approximately 30% of the live crown volume, retaining the natural shape and structural integrity of each tree. Pruning cuts will be made to suitable secondary growth or appropriate branch unions, avoiding indiscriminate topping. Sever and ring ivy at the base of affected stems to prevent further growth into the crowns. The works are intended to manage excessive heightReceived 9 Nov 2026T/2026/0090/TCA
