Granted Elmbridge 2025/1070 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 WAL:8/73 - T5 Cedar - Fell and treat stump with eco plugs T6 Cedar - Fell and treat stump with eco plugs Excerpts from "Health and Safety TPO Statement of Reasons T5 T6 Cedar" and "Subsidence TPO Statement of Reasons T5 T6 Cedar" copied below, please see uploaded documents for full text. We believe the mature Cedar trees (T5 and T6) at the above address are a significant health and safety risk to the homeowner and neighbours, to such an extent that they now require removal. Multiple branches have failed in the past and some much more recently, suggesting this tree is stressed and other branches are likely to fail in the near future. Large branches have penetrated through the roof of one of the houses nearby and the homeowner is very concerned about children playing in the garden underneath the trees. The main stems are very close to the buildings and therefore in a precarious position should any of the trees be windthrown or if more limbs fail due to high winds, which have been demonstrably severe in recent months. - These trees have suffered multiple storm failures and have large sections of deadwood within the crown.- Phone lines are running underneath the lateral branches and are in danger of being damaged by failing limbs or deadwood. Furthermore, local residents who may work from home or similar would be severely affected by loss of services should the tree damage the phone lines. Repair of the phone lines will put an unnecessary strain on the public purse and should be reasonably avoided if possible. - The houses are within 5m of the main stem of these trees. If more limbs should fail as they have in the past, the risk of injury or even perhaps loss of life is great. Not to mention the costly repairs that would be needed to the properties affected. The above tree works are proposed to limit the extent and need for expensive and disruptive engineering repair works at the insured property. The above tree works are propose

    20 Albany Close Esher Surrey KT10 9JR

    Tree Preservation Order EL:89/15 - T1 - Oak - reduce overall by 3m and raise canopy up to 5m by removing secondary branches to leave a finished height of 15m and a finished spread of 9m. The Oak has developed into a large tree for its present location within a relatively confined rear residential garden, with the crown extending in close proximity to the boundary with the neighbouring property. The proposed works are intended to manage the tree's overall size and crown dimensions in relation to its setting, while retaining its contribution to the local amenity. The proposed work will maintain the tree at a more appropriate scale for its location and will provide greater clearance from the neighbouring property and improve the relationship between the tree and the surrounding residential garden environment. The works are intended as a proportionate management measure rather than removal of the tree, allowing the oak to be retained while reducing its current size and encroachment within a confined residential setting.

    Little Heath House The Ridings Cobham Surrey KT11 2PU

    Tree Preservation Order EL:94/18 - T1- Oak tree- The reduction of the entire tree by 3m to reduce the risk of over loaded branches breaking out in high winds. Branches have been breaking out from this tree and the homeowner worries that about ranch will eventually hit the house. Current height 18m, resulting height will be 15m. Width currently 16m, resulting width 10m. Removal of all dead and dangerous branches. T2- Beech tree- Fell- Removal of this tree down to ground level to ease the congestion in the area and allow light through to the area below. Multiple wounds on this tree that haven't healed but have decayed. The upper canopy has been rubbing on neighbouring branches and has intertwined with both Oak trees creating extensive damage to the main stem in the upper canopy creating weak points on the tree. T3- Large Oak tree- Reduce the entire crown of this tree by up to 3 metres. This tree is far too large being so close to the neighbours building and drops lots of debris into the gardens below making the children's play area unusable at times. The tree casts an almighty shadow over the neighbours garden. This tree has a lot of dead wood within the canopy and also has OPM present. Current height 18m, remaining height 15m. Width currently 16m, resulting width 10m. T4- Sweet chestnut tree- This tree creates a lot of debris through out the year and creates a lot of shade over the lawn and plants. To re pollard this tree back to previous pruned areas retaining the lower limb which has the rope swing attached. Regrowth approximately 2.5m of new growth. T5- Sweet chestnut- This tree creates a lot of debris through out the year and creates a lot of shade over the lawn and plants. Reduce the height of this tree by 3 metres, remove all dead wood & all lower basal growth up to the height of 5m. Current height 12m, resulting height 9m.
