Planning application
2025/01227/TREE
12 Caithness Road, London, W14 0JB
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.

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Hammersmith and Fulham for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
