Planning application

111 EMBLETON ROAD, LONDON, SE13 7DQ

Granted Lewisham DC/25/141211 Trees in Conservation Areas

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

REAR: ONE Cherry (T1 )(ht.6m) FELL. Reason: too close to the house (less than 10m), previously reduced, regrown larger, surface roots are encroaching on paving area and stepping stones, causing a trip hazard. Informative A: the tree is an attractive feature in the garden, for rear outlook amenity and wildlife, retention is encouraged with crown lifting to increase light and visibility, or plant a replacement tree further from the house to replace rear amenity, wildlife, environmental benefits and shade to reduce high temperatures in increasingly hot summers due to climate change. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
