Proposal
REAR: ONE Weeping Willow (T1) HEIGHT REDUCTION by 2m from 7m to 5m, LATERAL REDUCTION by 2m from 8m to 6m & CROWN LIFT to 2.5m from ground level. Informative: the weeping willow had consent for crown reduction two years ago ref: DC/17/105052. The current proposed reduction should be balanced with regard to the previous reduction on the aesthetics of the tree's form and physiological health from the possibility of decay induced by excessive pruning ref BS 3998:2010 Tree works - recommendations.

15 CHURCH TERRACE, LONDON, SE13 5BT
REAR (in no.14): ONE Mimosa (T1)(ht.14m) FELL. Reason: pronounced lean now touching boundary wall, could cause wall failure; health and safety. REAR (in churchyard): ONE Maple (T2)(ht.12m) CROWN LIFT by 1m above ground level. LATERAL REDUCTION by 1m from 9m to 8m on compass point south. Reason: to reduce overhanging branches. REAR: ONE Indian Bean (T3)(ht.6.5m) REDUCE HEIGHT by 2m to 4.5m from 6.5m. LATERAL REDUCTION by 0.5 m from 3m on all compass points. Reason: general maintenance. Informative A: Blackheath conservation area has a treed landscape character and the retention of the Catalpha (T3) with crown reduction is greatly appreciated as it is the only tree in the rear garden of no.15. Informative B: the neighbour's Mimosa (T1) can be seen side view from Church Terrace. It's felling will be a loss to rear amenity and alternative mitigation is encouraged such as crown reduction or amending the shape of the wall top next to the tree to accommodate the stem. Prior consent for the felling of Mimosa (T1) is required from the tree owner. Informative C: replacement tree planting is encouraged in both rear gardens, especially as adjacent to St Margaret's Church, to reinforce the treed landscape character, for amenity, wildlife, wellbeing and shade to reduce high temperatures in increasingly hot summers due to climate change. Informative D: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.

FRONT: THREE Lime (T1,T2,T3)(ht.7-8m) carefully re pollard the crown back to old points aproximately 3 metres of regrowth FRONT: ONE hornbeam (T4)(ht.8m) reduce the overall size of crown by 3 metres. These trees are causing excessive shading

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.
