6 TRESSILLIAN CRESCENT, LONDON, SE4 1QJ
REAR: ONE Dead Plum (T1)(approx.ht.7m) FELL. Informative: Duty to replace - the owner has a duty to plant another tree of an appropriate size and species at the same place as soon as he or she reasonably can if a tree in a conservation area is removed because it is dead or presents an immediate risk of serious harm under 5 Day Notice. (Para 121 of Tree Preservation Orders and trees in conservation areas guidance). It would be appreciated if the Council could be notified when the replacement tree has been planted. Informative: controlling ivy growth on the adjacent and more visually prominent cherry tree is desirable as the ivy has extended into a substantial section of the canopy and is detrimentally restricting light to leaves and causing additional weight to branches.

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

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.
