Ivy Cottage Downside Common Road Downside Cobham Surrey KT11 3NL
Downside Village Conservation Area - This notification relates to two trees on our property situated close to the boundary wall between our garden and our neighbour???s garden. Our neighbours have been advised that these two trees (a goat willow and a Lawson cypress) may have roots which are causing damage to their property. They have therefore requested us to remove these two trees. We are willing to remove them provided that there is no objection to this from the Council, given that our properties (KT11 3NL) are both in a conservation area.

Elm Tree Cottage Downside Common Road Downside Cobham Surrey KT11 3NQ
Downside Village Conservation Area - To remove a small oak tree on left side of drive, 10m away from the house, on the advice of a structural engineer who has been consulted about cracks to the outside wall of the house. This oak tree self-seeded about 20 years ago and has seriously outgrown its location, given its proximity to the house, and is now causing damage. An arborist has been consulted, and he recommends removal of the tree which can be done without difficulty inside our property.
