    REAR: ONE Birch (T1 )(ht.8m) FELL. Reason: die back in upper canopy and leaves have prematurely turned. Duty to replace applies. REAR: ONE Robinia (T2) (ht.15m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 2.5m to ht.12.5m, LATERAL REDUCE by up to 2m from 9m to7m, general maintenance. Informative A: duty to replace the dead birch applies - duty to replace applies if a tree in a conservation area is removed because it is dead or presents an immediate risk of serious harm: Tree Preservation Orders and trees in conservation areas guidance, para 121 , suggest replace with another birch. Informative B: encourage waiting until spring 2026 to be sure the tree has died and not premature leaf change in response to the prolonged hot dry spring & summer 2025, if dead, encourage retaining safe standing dead stem and create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity. Informative C: to thank for retaining the Robinia for amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce high temperatures in increasingly hot summers due to climate change.

Remove dead ivy (exempt works). Reason: tree encroaching neighbouring rear gardens and overhangs school roof. REAR: ONE Foxglove Tree, Paulonia (T6)(T16 Catalpha in TPO) (ht.4.7m, r 3-5m) FELL. Reason: extensive basal stem decay and half dead canopy. Remaining foliage is thin and sparse, significant lean towards the playground. (Replacement tree will be required).

    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.
