6 CLIFF TERRACE, LONDON, SE8 4DZ
REAR (front to Widborne Cl): ONE Japanese Pagoda Tree (T1)(ht.8m) FELL. Reason: tree is taking away daylight from the garden causing other plants to struggle to grow well. Replacement trees to be arranged. REAR (front to Widborne Cl): ONE Maple (T2)(ht.9m) FELL. Reason: proximity to side wall, replacement trees to be arranged. REAR (front to Widborne Cl): ONE Birch (T3)(ht.9m) FELL. Reason: proximity to rear wall, replacement trees to be arranged. Replacement trees: 7 new trees: 3x Pyrus calleyrana 'Chanticleer', 2x Amelanchier lamarckii (multistem), 2x Acer palmatum, with mix of native and non-native planting in garden planting scheme to enhance biodiversity. Informative A: retaining trees is encouraged rather than felling and replanting, to conserve captured carbon, especially retaining the unusual Japanese Pagoda Tree (T1) and possibly birch T3, for existing streetscape amenity to Whidmore Close and screening from overlooking from flats to the rear. Informative B: the seven proposed replacement trees are welcomed for amenity, wildlife, environmental benefits and shade to reduce high temperatures in increasingly hot summers due to climate change.

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

DC/26/144936 Granted
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.
