Awaiting decision Hammersmith and Fulham 2025/01227/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

T1 rear garden: Prune crown by no more than 30%, min. crown spread of 10.8m dia. Remove dead wood, minor thinning works to improve light penetration where necessary, no more that 30% of crown removal at any single operation. Reduction pruning may be concentrated to provide more space for T2 and reduce light competition. Reduction cuts around most recent pruning points, and/or at suitable branch junctions. T2 rear garden: Crown thinning and removal of deadwood, reduction pruning, removal of all leaf area and woody tissue not to exceed 30% of total biomass. Removal of deadwood. Crown reduction will not exceed 4.55m (of remaining crown area), from a maximum reduction in 1.95 m in crown dia. Crown reduction will focus on the opposite side (North Western aspect of T2) to limit effects of pruning on photosynthetic capacity of the suppressed side of T2, and to maintain overall geometry of T2. Reduction cuts at previous pruning points, and/or at suitable branch junctions.

    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.
