Planning application
Ashfield Court 287 Clapham Road London SW9 9BB
Works: Trees
Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.
Proposal
FRONT: T1, T2, T3 and T4 Planes REDUCE HEIGHT AND LATERALS by up to 2m to points of last reduction to leave new heights of 10m and spreads of 5m. (Structural pollards). Reason: Routine maintenance to provide light to surrounding gardens and for the health and safety of the trees. Repeat specification. Council Note: Following a desktop audit and review of the Councils Tree Preservation Order records, no evidence has been identified that Order 439 affecting this site was ever confirmed. The Council does not therefore treat the site as subject to a valid Tree Preservation Order. The application has accordingly been withdrawn from TPO determination.
