Planning application

12 Harwood Park Salfords Surrey RH1 5EJ

Granted Reigate and Banstead 26/00377/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Oak tree - Reduce the crown volume (not size) by pruning to the previous cut points. The dominant primary branches will be removed, not beyond previous cuts, so that the subordinate/secondary branches take their place in hierarchy. This strategy on this tree equates to branch shortening of 1m.

As published by the council, reference 26/00377/TPO
