Planning application
Ewell Castle Nursery And Infant School Chessington Lodge Spring Street Ewell Surrey KT17 1TZ
Works: Trees
Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.
Proposal
T1 - Horse Chestnut - Tree is failing to bud, left side of tree sounds hollow and has widespread cambial dysfunction, burrowing insect detritus is clear and copious from deteriorated wood zones. Multiple presentations of ganoderma spp. emerge from previous wounds, not in a way that looks isolated. Integrity of the tree is poor, especially given that the pathogen could be active in the joining wood of the main union. Requesting removal as soon as possible for safety reasons.
