Planning application
92 Flat 1, Crouch Hill, Hornsey, London, N8 9ED
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T01: Multi-stemmed Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) located within the rear garden of the property. Crown reduce the overall height and lateral canopy spread of T01 (Ash) by 30% (equivalent to a radial branch reduction of 3.0 to 4.0 metres), pruning back to suitable, established previous reduction points. Note: All pruning works are to be carried out in strict accordance with British Standard 3998:2010 (Recommendations for Tree Work). The subject tree is a mature, multi-stemmed specimen that has regrown from a historic stump to form 5 large codominant stems. The primary union at 0.5 metres is heavily included and represents a potential structural weakness. Visible expansion cracks on the primary stems and secondary branches indicate rapid adaptive growth in response to physical stress and wind-loading. The proposed 30% (3–4m) crown reduction is specified to reduce the "wind sail" area and mechanical loading on this included primary union, managing the structural risk of stem failure. Additionally, the reduction will abate lateral encroachment and foreseeable future nuisance to neighbouring properties.

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.
