Planning application

29 Claremont Road Claygate Esher Surrey KT10 0PL

Granted Elmbridge 2024/2254 Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Tree Preservation Order EL:11/37: T9 - oak tree in rear green. Most of this tree's canopy hangs outside the owner's property and over Claygate Lodge Close, in particular the front drive and garden of 3 Claygate Lodge Close. The branches hang so low that food delivery vehicles cannot pass underneath and the extremities of some branches are less than 2 metres from the ground. It is oppressive. Lateral growth within the owner's property is suppressed by competition from conifers. Proposal: Crown lift to 4 metres over Claygate Lodge Close (the street and garden of no. 3). Reduce lateral spread over 3 Claygate Lodge Close by 1.5 metres. Current spread 8 metres, final spread 6.5 metres. Reduce height by 1.5 metres. Current height 18 metres, final height 16.5 metres.

    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.
