This report uses the Tree Preservation Order numbering throughout. TPO 36: T1 London plane is the roadside tree. TPO 36: T2 London plane is the building-side tree. The submitted application and sketch plan appear to reverse this numbering. The application has therefore been assessed by reference to the physical trees shown on the submitted plan and the protected tree numbers in Tree Preservation Order 36 (1975). The refusal of this application relates only to the proposed works to TPO 36: T1 London plane and TPO 36: T2 London plane. The submitted application also includes works to T3 Lime and T4 Lime. These trees are not protected by Tree Preservation Order 36 (1975), but are located within CA56 Vauxhall Gardens Conservation Area. The Council raises no objection to the notified works to T3 Lime and T4 Lime. This decision DOES NOT grant consent for any works to TPO 36: T1 London Plane or TPO 36: T2 London plane.
