  • 23/01010/HHOLD Granted

    8 Wellesford Close Banstead Surrey SM7 2HL

    Proposed single storey rear/side extension with internal changes and conversion of garage

    Decided 1 Aug 2023 Householder
  • 21/01247/TPO Refused

    8 Wellesford Close Banstead Surrey SM7 2HL

    T1 - Turkey Oak. This rather strange looking tree can only be seen by residents of 7 , 8 and possibly 9 Wellesford Close and has little if any amenity value. It does cause excessive shading to the gardens of Wellesford Close. This application is to seek the advice of the Council Tree Officer with a view to reducing the height from 13 to 10 metres and the branches towards the North also by 3 metres from 8m radius to 5m. This will also tend to balance the tree somewhat as it does seem weighted to one side. There is a lot of dead wood in this tree which would be removed at the same time as any works that are approved by Council. Access can be achieved by liaising with applicant who can provide the occupants name and phone number.
