   Decision issued: Grant Consent

3. 30 Jul 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

  9 Chaucer Avenue Weybridge Surrey KT13 0SS

  Tree Preservation Order EL:04/32 - Tree Works Specification (TPO Reference: EL 40/32) Tree A - Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa) TPO Reference: EL 40/32 Sketch Plan Number: A Proposed Works: Crown reduction by up to 4 metres to reduce overhang toward neighbouring properties and to improve balance and light penetration. Selective removal of damaged and broken branches, particularly those overhanging boundary lines. General crown clean to remove deadwood >25mm diameter and reduce risk of future branch failure. Reason for Works: Excessive shade and tree debris falling into neighbouring gardens, affecting residents' enjoyment and use of their outdoor space. Risk of injury from falling debris. Reported health impacts (e.g. child with eczema affected by contaminated toys). Debris prevents neighbour from using washing lines or garden areas. Tree B - Common Oak (Quercus robur) TPO Reference: EL 40/32 Sketch Plan Number: B Proposed Works: Crown reduction by up to 6 metres to reduce end-weight of lateral limbs overhanging neighbouring property. Selective pruning to remove hazardous broken branches and reduce structural stress on extended limbs. General crown clean to remove deadwood >25mm diameter. Reason for Works: Significant overhang and excessive weight on limbs growing towards neighbour's property. A large branch from this tree previously fell and crushed a metal shed; represents a repeat risk to safety and property. Shade and falling debris are a persistent nuisance to neighbours. Ongoing threat of injury, particularly to children playing in affected garden areas. Tree C - Common Oak (Quercus robur) TPO Reference: EL 40/32 Sketch Plan Number: C Proposed Works: Crown reduction by up to 6 metres to reduce canopy encroachment into neighbouring garden. Removal of any broken, hanging, or compromised branches to prevent potential failure. General crown clean to remove deadwood >25mm diameter.

  8 Midway Walton-On-Thames Surrey KT12 3HY

  Tree Preservation Order EL:93/13 - T1 - Oak - Reduce the lateral canopy extending over the property by approximately 3 metres, pruning back to suitable growth points in order to retain a balanced and natural crown form. Current dimensions: Height 15m, crown spread 15m. Reason for works: A significant defect has been identified within the principal lateral limb extending over the property. The limb, which has an approximate diameter of 35cm, contains a cavity extending approximately 20cm into the wood, representing more than half of the limb's diameter. The location and extent of this defect raise concerns regarding the long-term structural integrity of the branch. The tree has previously been subject to more extensive pruning on the neighbouring side but has not been correspondingly reduced within the applicant's property boundary. This has resulted in an unbalanced crown with a greater proportion of the canopy and associated loading concentrated over the property. The proposed reduction is intended to lessen the end weight and wind loading on the affected limb, thereby reducing the risk of branch failure while retaining the tree's overall health, amenity value and natural appearance. The works represent a proportionate arboricultural management approach that will help ensure the continued safe retention of this mature Oak within the landscape. T2 - Oak (please see the attached tree report) Crown Spread: North 6.5m, East 6m, South 5m, West 10.5m Condition: Upright tree with a pronounced south-western canopy bias and excessive end weight on elongated lateral growth. Normal vigour and crown vitality observed. Recently exposed following the failure and removal of an adjacent Silver Birch to the north. A children's play area is located directly beneath the canopy. Defects: Historic pruning wound at 4.5m on the north-eastern stem is occluding with no visible decay. Two woodpecker cavities are present at approximately 6m and 6.5m, extending internally by around 60cm and 3
