Reason: health & safety, proximity to flats, basal decay, heavy lean and extended branches towards the property and over communal rear gardens. Informative A: the replacement tree planting of 2 field maples within The Park is greatly appreciated to maintain the treed character of the Forest Hill conservation area and urban forest canopy, for amenity, wildlife, environmental benefits, improve air quality with the proximity of the busy south circular London Road, ref The London Plan 2021 for 10% uplift of London's urban forest canopy by 2050.

  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.
