    5 WEST GROVE, GREENWICH, LONDON, SE10 8QT

    The tree in question is a mature sycamore, shown as T1 on the plan (see 'Tree Location and Quality Assessment 5 West Grove Greenwich'). There is no requirement to fell or perform crown works to this tree; this application supports a permitted development certificate for a small outbuilding within the RPA of T1. The outbuilding will be constructed entirely with pile foundations, using the Abbey Pynford Treesafe Foundation system (see the 'Treesafe-Brochure'). A detailed specification of works, survey schedule and Tree Protection Plan are provided within the attached arboricultural impact assessment and arboricultural method statement.
