   Decision issued: Non-Material Amendment - Refused

3. 30 Jul 2026

   Added to PlanIndex

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

An amendment application changes a permission that already exists. Non-material amendments cover small adjustments with no wider effect, while minor material amendments, usually made by varying a condition, allow modest design changes without a fresh application. Anything beyond that needs a new permission, so the scope here is deliberately narrow.

  Tree Preservation Order EL:12/25 - Date of photographs submitted: Friday 9 January 20261) Tree identificationThis application relates to the Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) within Group G1 protected by Tree Preservation Order EL:12/25. The Schedule records G1 as "1x Horse Chestnut, 1x Ash", and the group is shown on the TPO plan.EL 12-25 TPO KT13 9JL 2) Proposed works Fell the Ash within Group G1 to as near ground level as practicable, using sectional dismantling where required for safety. Remove all arisings from site. Stump grinding or stump treatment (if permitted/required) to remove the residual hazard and prevent regrowth.3) Reasons for works (dangerous condition + public safety risk)The Ash is considered dangerous due to advanced decay at the base/anchorage and a pronounced lean, in a location where failure would pose a significant risk to the public and property.Condition evidence (photographs dated Fri 9 Jan 2026):The base shows extensive decay/cavities around the lower stem and buttress-root area, including loss of sound wood and areas of soft, degraded/crumbly material, indicating a likely reduction in structural integrity and anchorage.The tree has a noticeable lean and an asymmetric form, which increases concern that compromised anchorage and basal decay could lead to whole-tree or partial failure (particularly during strong winds or saturated ground conditions).Why pruning is not sufficient:The principal defects relate to the base/anchorage, so crown reduction/pruning would not address the underlying structural risk. 4) Targets / location riskThe tree stands along the boundary adjoining a busy public footpath leading towards/near Walton Bridge, with high pedestrian use (especially at weekends).The tree also affects/overhangs our garden.Given the high target use and proximity, the consequence of failure is unacceptable.5) Evidence submitted Appendix A: Photographs dated Fri 9 Jan 2026 showing basal decay/cavity, lean, and c

  4 Oatlands Drive Weybridge Surrey KT13 9JL

  Tree Preservation Order EL:12/25 - I am writing to request the Council's consent to fell the Horse Chestnut tree protected within Group G1 of Tree Preservation Order (TPO) EL:12/25 at 4 Oatlands Drive, KT13 9JL. The tree shows clear signs of decay and structural compromise. It leans toward the boundary and overhangs the public footpath that runs alongside the property boundary near Walton Bridge. This footpath is well used, particularly at weekends, and the tree's condition presents a risk to public safety. The relevant tree is the Horse Chestnut identified in the TPO as part of Group G1 ("1 x Horse Chestnut, 1 x Ash") for land at 4-16 Oatlands Drive, Weybridge, KT13 9JL. The Horse Chestnut shows a substantial stem cavity/hole with evidence consistent with internal decay/rot (see photographs). The Ash shows extensive basal/butt decay and structural compromise with a pronounced lean toward the boundary. Permission has already been granted for works to fell this tree and plant replacement(s) Both trees are adjacent to a busy public footpath along the boundary near Walton Bridge; failure of either tree (or major parts) could impact footpath users, fencing and neighbouring land. Access, traffic management and protection of the public footpath: Because of the proximity to the public footpath and the anticipated weight of timber sections, the works will require appropriate site controls and access arrangements: - Temporary public footpath closure for the duration of dismantling operations, with suitable signage/barriers and a safe exclusion zone. - The ability for the two bollards on the path to be unlocked to allow platform access positioned beside the tree(s) for safe dismantling and lifting of heavy timber. - The appointed contractor (Andy's Gardening Services, email: [email protected]) will provide rubber matting/ground protection to protect the path surface from plant and timber movement.
