Planning application

26 Ainsworth Road, Hackney, London, E9 7LP

Granted Hackney 2022/1260 Works to Tree with Preservation Order

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

False acacia (T1) - reduce crown to 1.5m below previous cuts, 3m reduction in total. There is concern that the tree will cause problems with the foundations of the house. There is cracking in the paving, the tree is only 4m away from the house. Pruning will restrict root growth and give better clearance to phone wires growing through the tree. Current height 15m. Final height after pruning 12m
