Planning application

21 Collingwood Avenue, Hornsey, London, N10 3EH

Granted Haringey HGY/2023/0814 Works to trees in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1: Robinia - Removal - The mature Robina tree has dieback in the crown, and extensive deadwood throughout. Bark is flaking away at base of the tree, showing the outer wood to be decaying. Propose to sectional fell, cutting the trunk as close to ground level as possible. T2: Apple - Removal - Ivy has over taken the majority of the crown. Remove ivy and fell to ground level. T3: Eucalyptus - Pruning - The mature eucalyptus has previously been pollarded, resulting in vigorous regrowth. Ivy has also surrounded the trunk and has established itself over the entire tree. Propose to sever and remove all the ivy, reduce the regrowth back to previous pruning point, leaving suitable furnishing growth where possible.

What a grant of permission means

The process from here

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

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.
