17 Park Road Heaton Moor Stockport SK4 4PY

We have recently moved into 17 Park road and are wishing to apply for removal of a large Birch tree in our back garden, due to a multitude of reasons. Firstly we have 2 young children and the tree takes up a large proportion of grass where they play. It's also causing excessive shading in the garden which can make the back of the house feel quite dark. The large canopy of the tree has created patches on the lawn where the grass has been unable to grow. We would hopefully like to restore the lawn but are unable to do that whilst it isn't getting any sunlight. The grass is also quite mossy where there isn't any sunlight and we'd like to try and improve its condition. Secondly the tree is located on the border of our lawn and drive. The large roots are causing damage to the drive which will likely get worse. We are also wanting to widen our drive over the next few years to enable us to get an electric car with an electric point in the garage. The current location of the tree would therefore make it difficult. HAR/CA15
