Planning application

Oatlands Park Hotel 146 Oatlands Drive Weybridge Surrey KT13 9HB

Granted Elmbridge 2026/0470 Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

EL:197 - T113 - A full description of the findings from aerial inspection including decay investigation and proposed works can be found in the attached document (9365 DECAY 01 - Cedar) A crown reduction is recommended to selected branches overhanging the south eastern road frontage. Works should involve the reduction of approximately 2 - 3 meters of extension growth, cutting back to suitable secondary growth points. Individual pruning cuts are not expected to exceed 250mm in diameter. A crown clean should also be undertaken to remove all deadwood greater than 25mm in diameter throughout the canopy. Additionally, the portion of the crown over sailing the road to the south eastern aspect is recommended for a tip end thinning by approximately 30%. In areas where significant accumulations of deadwood are already present, thinning is unlikely to be appropriate or required. The existing prop is recommended for replacement. See drawing ref: 9365 SK 01 for details.

    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.
