Planning application

REAR OF 17 VICARAGE PARK, PLUMSTEAD, LONDON, SE18 7SX

Granted Greenwich 24/3002/TC Tree works in a Conservation Area

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

4x self-seeded sycamores on the boundary between no 16 & 17 (lying on the 17 side) These trees have outgrown their surroundings. The tree closest to the rear of the properties restricts natural light to a number of properties on the street. All 4x trees have compromised the boundary wall. There is a large section of wall nearest the rear boundary of no 16 that moves freely, and leans towards the top of the steps onto the garden (Circa 10sqm of wall, in excess of 1000kg). Considering the danger that this wall poses, and the trees being the cause I recommend removal to as close to ground level of these trees as soon as possible, with the stumps poisoned with eco plugs to inhibit re-growth.

    WHITEHOUSE, 34B FOYLE ROAD, LONDON, SE3 7RH

    The very large white popular (Populus alba) has a large limb growing over the property roof. The end of the limb has a large rot pocket it and the rotten centre has fallen out nearly hitting the residents child playing under the tree. There is still a lot of growth and weight on the end of the limb and there is a very strong fear the limb may fail either damaging the property or hitting the residents child playing of family in the driveway. I strongly suggest the limb is reduced by around 2mtrs back to sound wood again to eliminate the risk of future snap outs. As this work is extremely high priority can I request it on a 5 day emergency decision.

    Fell Olive tree in raised front garden very close to the side wall of the garage. A structural surveyor noted that the root system of the tree is pushing against this wall, and has caused cracks to appear, and indicated that the removal of this tree is necessary to preserve the wall from further damage.
