Awaiting decision Hammersmith and Fulham 2019/02485/TREE Works to Tree(s) in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Sketch plan: The tree is marked as (1) on the sketch plan. Description of works to be carried out: Full and complete removal of the tree and trunk. No new tree to be planted there after. Reason for work: (1) Originally, we had applied for a crown reduction (reference: 2019/01075/tree) which the council had consented to. Post submitting our initial application we've had a landscaper visit our property and she informed us that the tree in question in our application is dying. Furthermore, its natural growth has been hindered by the neighbours (28 Harwood road) tree which was growing adjacent to it. With the neighbours tree taken down in the past month our tree looks even more out of place as it's crown is completely flattened on the left hand side. As a result we've decided we would like to remove it entirely. (2) We are looking to renovate our garden and in order to do so we would need to remove the tree. It also blocks valuable sunlight to our garden and front of house. (3) The above provides low amenity value and detracts from the presentation our and the neighbours property

    70 North End Road, London, W14 9EP

    Felling of a mature, dead Sycamore tree (T21) located on Land to the Rear of 70 North End Road, subject to Tree Preservation Order TPO/23/7/70. Following a recent inspection of the highway it has been noted that the tree is dead, the crown of which has the potential to fall onto the surrounding highway network managed by TfL. To mitigate this it is intended to remove all crown material and leave as a standing monolith. Works to reduce risk of failure and damage to the highway and its users.
