Planning application

308 Kennington Lane London Lambeth SE11 5HY

Refused Lambeth 26/00923/TPO Approval for works to TPO trees

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

Tree Preservation Order 36 (1975) protects the following two trees individually: T1 London plane is the road-side tree. T2 London plane is the building-side tree. (T1) Plane- Crown lift to 6m prune back from building by 2-3m, remove major deadwood Height from 18.0m to a minimum of 15.0m, Crown spread from 16.0m to a minimum of 13.0m Crown height from 4.5m to 6.0m (T2) Plane- Crown lift to 6m prune back from building by 2-3m, remove major deadwood. Clear street lamp. Height from 17.0m to a minimum of 14.0m, Crown spread from 15.0m to a minimum of 12.0m, Crown height from 4.5m to 6.0m (T3) Lime - Remove major deadwood and trunk epicormics up to crown break. (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.
