Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
During repair works of our wooden front garden boundary we discovered rot in the ash tree close to the root. We notified Haringey and contacted tree surgeon Jason Dollimore of Tree Matters Ltd, who made an assessment. The rot is about 20cm deep, a significant section of the trunk and his advice was to remove the tree – given the extent of rot, and the position next to the red route. The application concerns one ash tree (T1), close to the boundary fence between 157 and 159 Archway Road. The tree will be felled and removed.

Five Day Notice. T1 Chestnut on the boundary of the gardens on 153 Archway Road and 21 Cromwell Avenue. It stands approximately 60Ft tall of which it goes up 12ft then splits into 6 major limbs (of which 2 have failed). It appears they have failed due full leaf loading on the union and some what looks like white rot. There is a picture of a fruiting body that looks old. The picture with white mark shows where it has failed but also the limb I am most concerned about as this is close to the dysfunction area of the collapsed limbs. If this fails this will go straight through 21 Cromwell Avenue. On the other side of the tree there is an equally large limb which has a potential to fail and this limb would hit 153 Archway Road which is the owner of the trees property. Proposed works: to reduce all major limbs by at least 50% as this will stop the loading from the sail in the wind when it's in full leaf.

Dawn Redwood. Tree T1 on Sketch Plan. Arboriculturist Conclusion "Given the presence of cracks in the wall of adjacent buildings, and the close proximity of the tree to the buildings, it is recommended that T1 is removed to ground level." Engineer's Conclusion "the best course of action to avoid any further movement on the existing building would be to remove the existing tree and underpin the existing foundation"

HGY/2026/2127 Granted
Pembury House Nursery, Lansdowne Road, Tottenham, London, N17 9XE
Ginkgo (T1) - fell. Reason: this is a female tree, that drops fruit all over the nursery playground. The children try to eat them, it gets into their clothes, shoes, hands, and all over the class room, creating an extremely unpleasant environment for the children and staff. Replant with another deciduous tree with similar potential size canopy (eg. Norway maple) Sycamore (T2) - Reduce the height of the tree by 4m. Reduce lateral branches in line with this (up to 2.5m). Reason: There is some decay at the base of the tree on the east side, spanning 40% of the circumference of the tree. The bark is flaking from ground level up to 1.5m, and use of the sounding mallet indicates the dysfunctional wood extends at least to the same height. The tree has a full crown, but has had selective branch length reductions in the past. The crown overhangs the nursery playground and neighbouring parking area. Lime x2 (T10 & T11) - Crown raise to 4m, removing epicormic growth. Reason: to remove the branches that touch the shelter to prevent damage.
