  FRONT: ONE dead Redwood (approx.ht.12m) FELL. Reason: all foliage brown, not from winter bronzing as the tree died during the summer 2025 due to the prolonged hot dry spring and summer, close to front of property, health & safety. Duty to replace applies. Informative A: the landowner has a duty to plant another tree of an appropriate size and species when a tree is removed in a conservation area because it is dead or presents an immediate risk of serious harm. Ref. Tree Preservation Orders and trees in conservation areas, guidance, para 121. Informative B: a replacement tree is required for amenity, wildlife and environmental benefits, suggest planting further from the front elevation near the side boundary with St Batholomews Close, tree species such as: field maple, wild cherry, Bee-bee tree (Tetradium daniellii, Judas tree, wild service tree (Sorbus torminalis), whitebeam, crab apple, common pear, Paperbark maple, Snowdrop tree (Halesia carolina), Amelanchier, Pride of India/Golden Rain tree (Koelreuteria paniculata), Japanese pagoda tree (Styphnolobium japonicum), Italian alder, Hackberry (Celtis australis), Kentucky Coffee Tree (Gymnocladus dioica), Laburnum, Hawthorn, Magnolia Kobus, Strawberry Tree.

  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.
