Planning application
Oakfield House 9A Hollymead Road Chipstead Surrey CR5 3LQ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Oak tree at front of house. The Oak tree is dead and requires removal. As a landowner I have a duty under the Occupiers Liability Act 1957 to take action if a tree on my property could cause damage to vehicles or injury to a member of the public. Surrey Highways letter included with photo and map location of the tree. I propose to plant either a Silver Birch (Betula Pendula), Carpus Betulus (Hornbeam) or Sarbus Ana (Whitebeam) in my back garden as a replacement tree.
