Planning application

103 Purley Downs Road South Croydon CR2 0RH

Awaiting decision Croydon 26/03013/TRE Trees

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

T1. Copper Beech. To reduce the overall height by 3m and laterally round by 2m to suitable future growth points. Due to loss of light to the neighbouring upper floors. Leaf litter blocking gutters and making for slippery pathways. T2. Robinea. To laterally reduce the two larger lower branches that protrude east/south east across the neighbouring out building by 3m. On the north/northwest side of the crown, to laterally reduce the tree by 2-3m for full height. All due to loss of light/slippery footpath due to overshading and heavy leaf littering. (TPO 145 and 80, 2009)
