  FRONT: TWO Palms (Cordyline Australis)(TG1)(ht.5m & ht.1.5m) FELL. Reason: outgrown location either side of front entrance, too close building, no replacement proposed. REAR (no.15): ONE Pear (Pyrus Chanticleer)(T2)(ht.5m) LATERAL REDUCE overhanging limb by 4m from 4m to 0m. Reason: one limb overhanging from rear garden of 15 Inchmery Rd. REAR: ONE Sycamore (Acer Pseudoplatanus)(gp.T3)(ht.8.5m FELL. Reason: self-seeded, growing up through Laburnum & Prunus, removal to benefit growth of Laburnum & Prunus. REAR: ONE Laburnum (Anagyroides) Multi stem (gp.T3)(ht.5m) FELL. Reason: tree is not in very good condition with decay in stems & much deadwood in crown, as can be seen from photograph. REAR: ONE Cherry tree (Prunus Kanzan) (T4)(ht.8m) CROWN LIFT to 2.5m above ground level, CROWN THIN BY 10%, only to the limbs extending towards neighbouring property boundaries. Reason: to give crown a better form. REAR: ONE Sycamore (Acer Pseudoplatanus) (T5)(ht.9m) FELL. Reason: Self seeded, not in a good position near neighbouring boundary & competing with Cherry tree. REAR: ONE Tree of Heaven (Ailanthus Altissima) (T6)(ht.16m) CROWN LIFT to 4m above ground level and remove deadwood. Reason: clearance, beside shed REAR: ONE Pine (Pinus Sylvestris) (T7)(ht.11m) CROWN LIFT to 3.5m above ground level. Reason: behind shed. Proposal: new owner, rear garden very overgrown, not maintained for some time, many self-seeded trees, need to remove some and replace in more appropriate positions. 3 replacement trees are to be planted in the rear garden, 1) Ornamental Cherry to become a future replacement for the existing one as it is quite old. 2) A Silver Birch (Jacquemontii preferred) and 3) an Acer. Informative A: huge thank you for retaining trees and planting replacement trees for amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity. Informative C: planting a small tree in the front garden such as a magnolia is encouraged for streetscape amenity and urban greening.

Reason: reduction on all laterals & verticals, back to appropriate growth points, as part of regular maintenance. REAR: ONE Gingko (T4)(ht.7m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 2m from 7m to ht.5m, REDUCE SPREAD by 1.5m from 6m to 4.5m, CROWN THIN by 25%.

Informative A: huge thank you for retaining rear trees for amenity, wildlife, reduction in air pollution and providing shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity. Informative C: allowing Ginkgo T4 to develop into a mature tree is encouraged as it has a relatively light canopy or consider planting a large canopy tree towards the end of the rear garden where there is space to develop full canopy and contribute to urban forest amenity, wildlife and environmental benefits.

  REAR: ONE Oak (T1)(ht.8m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 1.5m to ht.6.5m, LATERAL REDUCE by 1.5m on all compass points, to appropriate growth points. Reason: routine maintenance of tree which lacks central leading shoot. Informative A: the sensitive management to retain the tree which has lost the central leading shoot for landscape amenity, urban forest canopy, wellbeing, wildlife and environmental benefits is greatly appreciated. Informative B: where possible please use cut branches in the garden to create habitat wood piles, and/ or a 'dead hedge' for wildlife and biodiversity. Informative C: please continue to plant trees, shrubs, hedges, climbers, perennials, bulbs and groundcover for varied garden landscape amenity, urban forest canopy, enhance wildlife habitat, provide plants for pollinators, improve air quality.

  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.
