  102 Tilt Road Cobham Surrey KT11 3HQ

  Cobham The Tilt Conservation Area - Seeking permission to remove one overgrown, non-native (Thuja) tree within the Tilt Conservation Area. The reasons for removal are outlined below: Character Appraisal: The identified tree is non-native, show signs of decay, and have reached a mature height that is inappropriate for their location. They do not make a positive contribution to the character and appearance of the Tilt Conservation Area, as outlined in the Tilt Conservation Area Character Appraisal & Management Plan. Situated at an important boundary location, the trees have become overly dominant and have a detrimental impact on the cohesiveness of the surrounding housing. Safety Concerns: The tree overgrowth has already caused significant damage to the road on Ashfford Gardens - the tree now significantly overhangs the public road. This presents a safety hazard for both pedestrians and passing vehicles, especially during high winds or adverse weather conditions. The risk of falling branches adds further urgency to the request for action. This also presents an ongoing trip hazard and a clear legal risk to the Council if a member of the public were to sustain injuries from tripping (cf JMP vs Cardiff Council, 2018). Loss of Light: The heavy overgrowth of the trees (up to 10m+ in height and 6m+ in width) significantly reduces natural light at the rear of the property at 102 Tilt Road (and adjoining priorities). The dense canopy blocks sunlight to the back of the house, impacting the living environment and outdoor amenity space. Energy & environment Increased energy consumption: Due to the lack of natural light and warmth, residents are relying heavily on artificial lighting and heating - up to 14 hours a day, 12 months a year. This has both financial and environmental consequences, increasing household bills and carbon emissions. Proposed Replanting and Conservation Enhancement: The trees will be replaced by native species, including hedgerows and understory vegetation,

  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.
