4 Glade Close Long Ditton Surbiton Surrey KT6 5EA

Granted Elmbridge 2026/1349 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 - EL:11/12 - English Oak Rear Garden: The tree is a mature specimen exhibiting characteristics consistent with advanced age and historic weather-related damage. Evidence of previous branch failure is present throughout the crown. In view of the compromised branch structure and historic limb loss, crown management works are recommended to reduce sail effect and mitigate the risk of future branch failure. Reduce overall crown height and spread by 2m, to reduce the sail area, and target the outer extremities of the crown, where historic failures are evident, leaving a sympathetic form of a flowing branch lines and natural crown shape. Remove dead branches throughout the crown area that are over 4.5cm in diameter, and inspect the crown for any adversities. Retain large standing deadwood if safe.

    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.
