2025/2170 Granted
32 High Street Thames Ditton Surrey KT7 0RY
Thames Ditton Conservation Area - Shown on the attached drawing 32HS/P/1 is tree T1 which is a small Magnolia Grandiflora tree planted by the owner a few years ago as a shrub. The trunk at its base is around 100mm diameter. It is very close to the existing house and the existing extensions at no 32 and 30a. Photographic evidence of cracking on the existing wall of the extension at no 32 has been provided. It is also close to the shared boundary and is becoming quite large and tall, and damaging the fence. It is overshadowing the patio at no 32 and also the existing patio at no 30a. It is not thought to be possible to take the entire root ball of the tree and replant it in the garden. Therefore, it is proposed to fell the tree. The garden also has ample vegetation and trees so there is no room for new planting of a similar tree.

2026/1983 Granted
20 Albany Close Esher Surrey KT10 9JR
Tree Preservation Order EL:89/15 - T1 - Oak - reduce overall by 3m and raise canopy up to 5m by removing secondary branches to leave a finished height of 15m and a finished spread of 9m. The Oak has developed into a large tree for its present location within a relatively confined rear residential garden, with the crown extending in close proximity to the boundary with the neighbouring property. The proposed works are intended to manage the tree's overall size and crown dimensions in relation to its setting, while retaining its contribution to the local amenity. The proposed work will maintain the tree at a more appropriate scale for its location and will provide greater clearance from the neighbouring property and improve the relationship between the tree and the surrounding residential garden environment. The works are intended as a proportionate management measure rather than removal of the tree, allowing the oak to be retained while reducing its current size and encroachment within a confined residential setting.
