Planning application
JOHN BALL PRIMARY SCHOOL, SOUTHVALE ROAD, LONDON, SE3 0TP
Works: Trees Small domestic
Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
REAR: ONE Decayed Lime (T1)(tag 410) FELL as close to top boundary fence as possible. Reason: stem base is decayed and hollow, located on top of a bank, health and safety with risk of failure on to buildings. Informative: Veteran Trees - the lime could be a veteran pollard. Veteran trees are recognised as valuable for their aesthetic appeal, biological and historical significance. They are survivors from the past, a relict of a former landscape. It is recommended that the remedial work also considers the manner of cutting to retain as much of the stem as safe to do so and extend the life of the tree for heritage, biodiversity and educational reasons refs: https://www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/historic-environment-resources/veteran-trees/ http://www.ancienttreeforum.co.uk/ancient-trees/what-are-ancient-veteran-trees/

249A KIRKDALE, LONDON, SE26 4QD
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.
