Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Esher Conservation Area - T1 - mature Douglas Fir tree situated in back garden of 1a More Lane. Tree has a height of approximately 17 metres and spread of approximately 9.5 metres. Proposed works are to reduce spread of the tree overhanging garden of 3 More Lane by approximately 1-1.5m to previous pruning points and to rebalance remaining crown selectively by 1-1.5m where necessary. These works are being carried out to allow light into garden, reduce end weight of limbs forming from previously topped main stem and to lessen fowling of area beneath from pigeons. After these works overall height of tree will not be affected and spread will be approximately 8 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.
