24 BROCKLEHURST STREET, LONDON, SE14 5QR
REAR: ONE Sycamore (T1)(ht.10m) FELL. Reason: the tree is the smallest in a group of sycamores straddling several rear gardens, removal will reduce overcrowding, lack of light and benefit growth of surrounding trees and shrubs. Informative A: the rear garden is adjacent to railside green infrastructure designated a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC) and Green Corridor. Therefore the sensitive management to retain and benefit the growth of the remaining trees at the end of the rear garden is greatly appreciated for amenity, urban forest canopy/urban greening, wellbeing, wildlife, environment and to mitigate the climate and biodiversity emergencies. Informative B: where possible create log and wood piles or stack cut branches horizontally between poles as 'dead hedges' on site for wildlife habitat and biodiversity. Informative C: please maintain hedgehog highway holes (13cmx13cm) in boundary fencing for wildlife connectivity.

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.
