    DC/26/143771 Submitted 22 Apr 2026 0m away

    FRONT (street tree): ONE London Plane (T2)(ht.13-15m) INSTALL ROOT BARRIER to front and side of house within curtilage of no.88, length 18.5m, depth 4.6m. Reason: to retain the street tree implicated in subsidence at the property, ground works to remove small fibrous roots to facilitate installation of root barrier. Informative A: the installation of the root barrier is hugely appreciated to retain the London Plane street tree which contributes significantly to street character of tree-lined Pepys Road with mature plane trees along both sides. These street trees are a major landscape feature for streetscape amenity, for wildlife, reduction in air pollution and providing shade to reduce increasingly high spring and summer temperatures due to climate change. Informative B: TP/BH3 by front bay window: foundation 400mm depth - which is less than current NHBC guidelines for clay soils, London Plane roots identified 0.40-3.15m bgl, but soil below foundations is not desiccated, defective drains being investigated, heave risk potential approx.21mm.

    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.
