Planning application
P/2026/00584/TREE
31 Flat 2,Girdlers Road,London,Hammersmith And Fulham,W14 0PS
Proposal
1. Very large plane tree. Cut it more than was done a few years ago. Leaves are constantly blocking the house gutter and water goes through the wall and down my kitchen wall. Gutter needs cleaning 3-4 times a year because of that. 2. Large chestnut tree. Has grown enormously over the past 10 years. Blocking the sunlight. Its not even on the plan. (Plan attached). We would like to cut off some brunches. Our flat belongs to Guinness housing (ex Shepherds Bush housing). We are tenants (for 13 years).

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.
