  FRONT: ONE Olive tree (T4)(ht.7.5m) FELL. Reason: structural issue, to stop the influence of the tree(s) on the soil below building foundation level and provide long term stability to the site. Informative A: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.

  REAR: TWO: Leylandii Trees (T1, T2)(ht.11m & 12m) FELL. Reason: removal of these trees and replanting with a smaller species would better suit the space available. The leylandii do provide good screening, but crown reduction would leave a sparse canopy, unusual shape unlikely to foliage re-green. Replanting proposal: to plant one replacement tree (native species, approx.ht.2.5-3m) within the rear garden. Informative A: the replacement planting with a native tree is hugely supported, and additional planting is encouraged with a second tree and a mixed native species hedge to improve screening and maintain wildlife habitat at the end of the rear garden. Suggested tree species: strawberry tree, whitebeam, crab apple, hazel, holly, goat willow, spindle, common pear. Hedge shrubs: hawthorn, hazel, holly, alder buckthorn, wild privet. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with some arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.

  REAR: FIVE/SIX Leylandii trees (T1-T6) FELL (approx.ht.10-12m, close grown, excessive shade, low amenity value, debris dropping onto parking area to rear, voluntary replacement proposed with flowers/shrubs for more suitable environment) Informative: a replacement tree(s) in addition to the voluntary replacement shrubs proposed would be greatly appreciated to continue the green buffer between Inchmery Road rear gardens and the properties behind in Burleigh Way.

  REAR: ONE Ash tree (A)(approx.ht.15m) FELL. Reason: excessive shade, previously crown reduced, close to boundary fence, potential damage and debris to rear parking area. Voluntary replacement trees of more suitable size to continue the green buffer between the rear garden and Burleigh Walk properties. Informative: the proposed planting of replacement trees is hugley appreciated to retain the rear amenity of the green boundary of the Culverly Green conservation area. This green buffer provides separation and screening between the properties in Burleigh Walk to the rear, contributes to London's Urban Forest, supports wildlife and creates seasonal interest. Suggested replacement trees such as wild cherry, Tibetan cherry, field maple, whitebeam, Robinia pseudoacacia, birch, Laburnum, Judas Tree, Wild Service Tree, crab apple, pear, Euodia hupehensis (the Bee Tree), Davidia involucrata (The Handkerchief Tree), Gymnocladus dioica (The Kentuckey Coffee Tree), small leaved lime, crab apple, hawthorn, holly, Koelreuteria paniculata (Golden Rain Tree).

  43 DEVONSHIRE ROAD, LONDON, SE23 3EN

  FRONT: ONE Lime tree (T1) Ht 15m FELL to ground level & treat stump REASON: A remedy to the differential foundation movement at the insured property and to ensure the long-term stability of the building. To limit the extent and need for expensive and disruptive engineering repair works at the insured property. To limit the extent and need for costly CO2e emissions relating to alternative engineering repair works at the insured property. It is the case that an alternative to felling such as pruning or significant 'pollarding' of the tree would not provide a reliable or sustainable remedy to the subsidence in this case. We do not consider that any other potential means of mitigation, including root barriers, would be effective or appropriate in the circumstances. We are satisfied that the evidence obtained following completion of our Arboricultural Implication Assessment report completed 31/01/2024 clearly links the Lime T1 and False Acacia T2 as the cause of damage to the risk address. REPLANTING: Insurers understanding the requirement to offer replacement planting in the event consent to fell is granted. 43 DEVONSHIRE ROAD TREE PRESERVATION ORDER 2024 DC/24/135159

  9 EXETER PLACE, LONDON, SE26 6AB

  REAR (fronting Wells Park Rd) ONE Sycamore (T2, in TPO A1)(ht.12-14m) FELL by dismantling to safe standing stem or high stump. Reason: health & safety, the tree is in severe physiological and structural decline, leaning towards the road, several branches have already failed, and although a small amount of live growth remains, the tree has no meaningful long-term viability, the significantly compromised structure presents an unacceptable risk of further branch or whole-tree failure onto highway. The proposed removal is necessary to eliminate the risk. The replacement tree is to be a large canopy species planted as near as practicable to the original location. The County of London (Lewisham No.2) Tree Preservation Order, 1957. Informative A: thank you for proposing 4x replacement trees, 1x is required to be a large canopy tree to replace the TPO tree and to maintain the treed boundary character to Wells Park Road for public streetscape amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change ? Hornbeam, Hop hornbeam, sessile oak, Japanese Pagoda Tree, walnut (Juglans regia), Italian alder or grey alder, Caucasian Elm (Zelkova carpinifolia), small leaved lime, Hackberry (Celtis australis), Turkish hazel (Corylus colurna), Kentucky Coffee Tree (Gymnocladus dioica) - see further planting details below. Informative B: thank you for planting additional voluntary trees for screening, to improve species diversity, and the setting of the property. Informative C: thank you also for looking to retain a safe standing stem/high stump and creating habitat log piles with some dead wood arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.

  12 PRINCETHORPE ROAD, LONDON, SE26 4PF

  REAR: ONE Lombardy Poplar (T1)(ht.16m) CROWN REDUCE by 10-11m to ht.5-6m, REDUCE SPREAD from 10m to 5m to create new pollard. Reason: multi-stemmed tree has had a major stem failure exposing large cavity approx.2m above gd level. Remaining stem above cavity is weighted towards neighbouring properties and a crown reduction to reduce weight and sail above cavity is urgently needed to minimise risk of future failures. Merely reducing the one stem would drastically change the balance of the overall canopy and exposure to wind would be likely to cause more failures on the remaining stems. Crown reduction is required for safety to reduce overall canopy to approximately 5-6m from ground level (please see annotated photo) to create a new pollard. Informative A: thank you for managing the tree by safe reduction to retain as a low pollard for rear amenity, wildlife and canopy shade to reduce heatwave temperatures due to climate change. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
