    Pune x 1 plane tree (front garden)from the owners post-pruningWe are the owners of 25 Argyll Road and we have made you aware of the fact that the residents of no 27 & no 23 Argyll Road, plus at least one of the residents to our rear off Campden Hill Road do not want this tree's presence because they say it removes their light and drops leaves in the autumn. They have attempted to get this tree pruned almost every year and I have had to intervene with you to stop it happening. However, you have granted permission for them to prune this tree now only two years after the last pruning. This is not acceptable particularly as I spoke to you about this last year, and following their botched half prune of the tree in 2020 which you made them rectify. They also have a strategy of pruning the tree right now, just as the new buds are growing in order to stunt growth for the whole of this season and buy an extra year. This is not acceptable tree management and is not in accordance with the Council Tree Policy on ensuring tree health is maintained. Therefore I would like to make it clear that we object to the tree being pruned against until February 2027 and this should be noted in the records. Finally, please would you secure a TPO for this tree. We cannot have recently arrived neighbours abusing its presence any longer.
