162 INCHMERY ROAD, LONDON, SE6 1DF

Granted Lewisham DC/21/120974 Trees in Conservation Areas

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 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).

    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.

    DC/26/143356 Submitted 13 Mar 2026 0m away

    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.

    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.
