The plants to be removed, largely due to overcrowding, are in fact shrubs, not trees, although they are quite mature and seem large. Please see plans attached. The only Tree is the Magnolia, which we propose to keep. There is one unidentified tree/shrub leaning against the end of the garden shed, which could be a tree, it is precarious and causing harm to the structure anyway (we want to remove this shed in any case)

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.
