Esher Conservation Area - Our property is in a conservation area. We bought the property this year. We have a palm tree in the back garden which we would like to remove. The tree is in poor condition and is not in keeping with the rest of our garden and the local traditional greenery. The tree is also right next to our decking and in close proximity to our house and we are concerned about the roots causing instability and damage to our property. We have discussed with our next door neighbour where the tree borders (No 22) and they are supportive of the removal due to the condition of the tree and as the branches overhang their garden. We would replace the tree with a more traditional smaller tree / large bush in keeping with the garden and surrounding landscape. We would like to remove the tree asap in order to replant something new in time for spring growth. The location of the tree is in the closest right hand corner to the back of our house next to the decking.

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.
