Planning application

Sandacre Cedar Road Cobham Surrey KT11 2AA

Granted Elmbridge 2024/2191 Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

EL:03/05 - There is a larger Beech tree (T1) about midway down the back garden. It has never been touched or trimmed. The branches have grown so long that some of them now hang down to the ground and make access to the back portion of the garden difficult. We are looking to conduct some very basic grooming such that the branches blocking access to the rest of the garden are trimmed to a height of 2m. No other branches will be addressed at this time, nor do we want to do anything with the trunk/tree itself.

As published by the council, reference 2024/2191

    Land Side of Portsmouth Road Portsmouth Road Cobham KT11 2NH

    Tree Preservation Order EL:18/07 - T1 - Horse chestnut - Proposed Works: Crown lift over the roadside only to provide a minimum clearance of 5.2 metres above ground level. All pruning shall be limited to secondary branches where practicable and carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations, with a maximum pruning wound diameter of 50mm. Reason for Proposed Works: Following a tree survey, it was identified that the crown over the carriageway has been subject to contact from larger vehicles in the past. The proposed crown lift will provide appropriate clearance for high-sided vehicles, reducing the likelihood of future vehicle strikes and preventing unnecessary damage to the tree, whilst retaining its long-term health and amenity value.
