Planning application
67 BOUSFIELD ROAD, LONDON, SE14 5TP
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
REAR: ONE Ash (T2)(ht.9m) FELL. Reason: tree has basal decay, vertical split in the trunk, previous pollard, health and safety risk, substantial size disproportionate to the relatively small garden causing light deprivation, the tree interferes with the boundary making replacement of garden fencing impractical. Replacement tree to be planted - either UK grown birch or hawthorn. Informative A: the proposed replacement tree planting in the garden redesign with birch or hawthorn is hugely appreciated for rear amenity, wildlife habitat and to replace lost urban forest canopy to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change. Other suitable replacement species include: whitebeam, field maple, Amelanchier, hazel, Gleditsia, common pear, alder buckthorn, quince (Cydonia oblonga). Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity, provide hedgehog highway holes in any new fencing.

39 BOUSFIELD ROAD, LONDON, SE14 5TP
REAR: TWO Sycamore (TG1)(ht.14m, spread 9.5m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 4m to ht.10m, REDUCE RADIUS by 3m from 9.5m to 6.5m, CROWN THIN by 30%, CROWN LIFT to 5m above ground level. Reason: to manage within their setting, one tree has an included union at 2m height, the trees are growing together in proximity to sheds and fences. Informative A: the sensitive management of the trees for rear landscape amenity, urban forest canopy/urban greening, wellbeing, wildlife, environmental benefits and to mitigate the climate and biodiversity emergencies is greatly appreciated. Informative B: where possible please use cut branches in the garden to create habitat wood piles, and/ or a linear 'dead hedge' for wildlife and biodiversity. Informative C: please continue to plant trees, shrubs, hedges, climbers, perennials, bulbs and groundcover for varied garden landscape amenity, urban forest canopy, wildlife habitat, plants for pollinators, improve air quality.

75 BOUSFIELD ROAD, LONDON, SE14 5TP
ONE Yew tree (T1)(ht.10m) LATERAL REDUCTION by 1.5m from 4m to 2.5m on S compass point. Reason: Reduce overhang over garden of 77 Bousfield Rd. Reduction and shaping back to appropriate growth points will reduce lack of light and benefit growth of surrounding trees and shrubs. Informative A: The sensitive management of the tree is greatly appreciated for landscape amenity, wildlife, wellbeing, and urban forest canopy for environmental benefits to mitigate the effects of climate change. Informative B: Wherever possible, please create habitat log piles in the garden from cut branches for wildlife and biodiversity.

REAR: ONE Cherry(T1 )(ht.9m) FELL. Reason: branch failure, main stem basal decay and large cavities, proximity to rear elevation, health and safety. Informative A: a replacement tree is encouraged for amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce high temperatures in increasingly hot summers due to the climate change, species such as field maple, whitebeam, crab apple, hawthorn, hazel, Harlequin Glorybower (Clerododendrum trichotomum), Magnolia Kobus, strawberry tree, mulberry, quince (Cydonia oblonga), Persian ironwood (Parrotia persica), Lagerstroemia indica, Laburnum, bird cherry. Informative B: please leave standing dead stem and create habitat log piles and dead hedge with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.

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.
