Planning application

Rock Bank Sandy Lane Kingswood Surrey KT20 6NL

Granted Reigate and Banstead 23/00724/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 - Oak )(Not subject to a TPO) - reduce canopy by 20% (removing approximately 2 - 2.5 metres from overall crown radius) and remove all major deadwood and decayed branches. Work requested as tree is causing excessive shading and high volume of leaf and acorn drop. A sensitive reduction will help maintain the tree at a suitable size for its location and proximity to buildings. G1 - Row of Douglas Firs - reduce lower lateral limbs by 1 - 1.5 metres and remove all major deadwood. Work requested as lower laterals are over extended and have high potential for failure if left unmaintained.
