(T4) Lime (smaller tree)-Remove trunk epicormics up to crown break. Council Note: Tree Preservation Order 36 (1975) protects T1 London plane and T2 London plane. 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.

  T1 & T2 - Two limes - crown Reduce height by 2m from 12m to 10m. Reduce laterals by 1.5m from 6m to 4.5m on all compass points, cutting back to the previous reduction points. Both are semi-mature limes standing to the rear of the property. The trees have been reduced previously and the regrowth from those earlier cuts has extended beyond the established points, carrying increasing end-weight on the resulting unions and taking the crown out of proportion with its position over the garden, the adjoining boundaries and the neighbouring buildings. The proposed works return the crown to the existing reduction points, in line with the works proposed for T3 and T4, retaining the tree in full along with its established shape and its contribution to the publicly visible canopy. T3 & T4 - Two limes - crown reduce Reduce height by 3m from 18m to 15m. Reduce laterals by 2m from 7m to 5m on all compass points, cutting back to the previous reduction points. Two mature limes standing to the rear of the property, one of a pair with T4. The trees has been reduced previously and is managed on a maintenance cycle; the regrowth from those earlier cuts has now extended well beyond the established points and is carrying increasing end-weight on the resulting unions, which are the weakest part of the structure. The proposed works return the crown to the existing reduction points, retaining the established shape and form of the tree and keeping it in proportion to its position over the garden and the adjoining boundaries.

  T1 Robinia sp. (x1) Reduce crown by 2.5-3m off height and width. Reason: Lost two stems in October.

T3 Robinia sp. (x1) Reduce crown by 1m all around. Reason: To lessen the load on the crown.
