Planning application

429 Brentwood Road Romford RM2 6DD

Granted Havering T0123.22 Trees

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Ash Tree in front garden of 429 Brentwood Road. TPO number T9 on Brentwood Road TPO 2872 attached and circled on the photograph attached. I wish to have a crown reduction since the tree has not been reduced in more than 15 years and is now approaching the roof of the property. Previous crown reductions were done to 25% but I understand now that this needs to be specified as amount to be removed. In that case I would like a reduction of 2.5 metres.

    T0076.23 Submitted 2 Jul 2023 50 yards away

    Tree T8 of the preservation order 28/72, copper beach tree to the front of 433 Brentwood Road, Formally request permission to perform a 40% crown reduction on a specified tree located on our property. The tree in question has been precisely identified using satellite imaging and corresponds accurately with the Tree Preservation Order (TPO) map. Our request is predicated upon a number of considerable issues that this tree has been causing, with its current size and position becoming increasingly disruptive and damaging. Firstly, in high wind conditions, branches from the tree have been hitting our property, posing a significant risk of physical damage to our house. We fear that further, more severe damage might occur, including potential harm to residents if this situation remains unaddressed. Secondly, the tree sap is continually dropping onto parked vehicles below, causing notable damage to the paintwork and creating a persistent and avoidable expense. The sap is not easily removed and over time corrodes the finish on the vehicles. Thirdly, due to the tree's size and density, it is severely blocking natural light from entering our home. This lack of sunlight affects the quality of life within the property and increases the reliance on artificial light, leading to greater energy consumption and expense. Lastly, due to its significant size, the tree is drawing an excessive amount of water from the soil, which happens to be a soft clay mix. This leads to subsidence issues as the tree's high water intake is causing the ground to become unstable, and we are concerned about the potential long-term structural damage to our property. We believe that a 40% crown reduction would help mitigate these problems while preserving the aesthetic value of the tree and respecting the intent of the TPO. We eagerly await your favourable consideration of this application.

    2 Monarch Close Rainham RM13 8SQ

    Tree T1. We would like to remove of this tree. It has has a history of problems and it was part of a group of tree's that have all failed and been removed over the years. Pollarding was granted last year due to its size and the fact that a large part of the tree had broken off due to a fungal bracket. It was reported to me after pollarding that the tree had a large cavity just below the main union , approximate size unknown but and least a depth of 300mm. This was a year ago and I have noticed today that there is a fungal bracket coming out of this cavity, I am concerned that it will break and damage neighbours sheds.
