Planning application

18 Oscar Close Purley CR8 2LU

Withdrawn Croydon 21/03174/TRE Consent for works to protected trees

Works: Trees

Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.

Proposal

I understand that some of the trees behind our back garden are under a TPO. I am not sure of TPO number as I could not find the planning application when I searched. We would like to part raise and part lower the grass area in our garden to make it level. As i understand, the original planning permission for our property does not allow any excavation for this area hence my application. The trees directly behind our house are small so I would like to get someone to come and have a look to confirm what we can/ can't do.

    T1 Horse Chestnut T2 Unknown We wish to level or terrace our garden as appropriate. I imagine this will required digging where there are roots or filling above the roots. There are roots from both trees near the surface of the lawn, which is entirely sloped. We would like advice regarding T1 and T2 damaging the fence as they grow.
