   Added to PlanIndex

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

  12 MANOR MOUNT, LONDON, SE23 3PZ

  FRONT: ONE Horse Chestnut (T1)(ht.20m) CROWN REDUCE by up to 3 metres, from ht.20m to ht.17m and spread from 15m to 12m, CROWN LIFT canopy to approx.4m above ground level. Reason: management for health & safety; tree inspection found fungal fruiting bodies in NE secondary stem over road, historic limb failure, low resonance with hammer and Microdrill at 4m in main stem indicating reduced resistance; combined with the high target area recommendation is for heavy pruning to the north east stem to mitigate against the spread and degradation of the fungal infection, to reduce limb failure risk from wind sail effect in the upper crown, and overall crown reduction to maintain as natural a shape as possible from the resulting asymmetric crown. Informative: it is greatly appreciated that such sensitive and considerate tree works are being undertaken to retain the visually significant frontage horse chestnut tree with regard to health and safety and for urban greening amenity and environmental benefits within this part of the Forest Hill conservation area.
