29 Ashley Park Avenue Walton-On-Thames Surrey KT12 1ER

Granted Elmbridge 2025/2833 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- ELM:48 - T1 - Red oak - Crown reduction in height and spread by up to 2 metres and crown lift 5 metres from ground level - reason for work: The Red Oak (T1) has been heavily reduced in the past, and the proposed crown reduction of up to 2 metres in height and spread is intended to remove excess stress weight from previous heavy pruning points, promoting a stronger and healthier crown structure while reducing the risk of branch or limb failure. The reduction will also help maintain an aesthetically pleasing and balanced crown. A crown lift to 5 metres from ground level is proposed to ensure adequate clearance over the roadside for vehicle access and safety. All works will be carried out in accordance with the recommendations and good practice set out in BS3998:2010 - Tree Work: Recommendations, with a maximum pruning wound diameter not exceeding 50mm.

    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.
