   Added to PlanIndex

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

  G1. Himalayan Birch x 4 Front Garden: Unfortunately, all the trees have been planted too close to the boundary wall and brick pillars, and are now in danger of damaging the structures. To help prevent these trees from becoming an issue, a tree planting replacement plan would be prudent for longevity and consider replacing them with species that have less aggressive root systems and are planted in a more suitable location, at a distance from the wall and pillars. Suggested Work: Fell in sections to ground level. The tree's current height is 6m, and its crown spread is 3m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 0.0m and the crown spread is 0.0m T2. Walnut Rear Garden: Selectively reduce height and spread by 2m, pruning out the longer sections of the stems, leaving long and natural secondary branches to create a very natural appearance. Remove dead branches throughout the crown area that are over 2.5cm in diameter, and inspect the crown for any adversities. Works to be carried out in July 2026. The tree's current height is 16.5m, and its crown spread is 12m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 14.5m and the crown spread is 10m. T4. Apple Tree Rear Garden: Remove dead, damaged, or diseased wood and reduce new growth back to the previous points (1m height & spread) to the last two buds on new growth. Thin out crossing or rubbing branches: This prevents damage to the bark and reduces the risk of disease. Prune back to an outward-facing bud to encourage new growth to spread away from the centre of the tree. The tree's current height is 4m, and its crown spread is 3.5m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 3m and the crown spread is 2.5m The best pruning times are between November and early March. T5. European Lime Rear Garden: Reduce new growth to previous reduction points (3m Height & spread), retaining good growth furnishings to support crown development. If required, thin the branch structure to help create an even balance. Remove dead branches over 2.5cm in diameter. Inspect the crown for adversities and advise if necessary. The tree's current height is 21m, and its crown spread is 12m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 18m and the crown spread is 9m.

  Pruning to Gingko biloba. On site discussion took place in the summer of 2024 with LBRUT arboriculturists. The tree was last pruned in early 2016 and has added considerable growth since then. We estimate the height of the tree to be 16 or so metres high comprising a crown 12 metres in height and a trunk about 4 to 5 metres high. We are applying to prune approximately 5 metres from the crown leaving 7 metres.

  Palace Gate House, Old Palace Yard, Richmond, TW9 1PD

  T1 - Stone Pine Dimensions: Approx 18m Height, N12m, E6m, S8m, W2m. Proposed Works: Remove lowest limb back to the stem. Justification: The tree has a large over-extended lever arm growing to the north-west, roughly 12m in length. It protrudes well outside the line of the rest of the canopy and has been the subject of at least two previous applications, including one rejected by Richmond last year, showing this limb has been a concern to multiple separate arborists over a period of time. Recently a limb above it failed, came down and caused significant damage to the listed boundary wall to Old Palace Yard. The remaining lever arm sits above a busy public footpath with frequent historical tours passing through, a busy roadway and a run of car parking bays. Photographs from only two years ago show a noticeable flattening of the limb since, which adds to our concerns around end loading and mechanical stress at the union. With the failure we have been dealing with, there are no sufficient points left in the tree to brace from. On that basis we believe removal of the limb is the only suitable course of action, and given the target beneath it and the failure that has already occurred and no substantial reduction points.

  T1- Ash tree- Remove and replace with Liquidambar tree. This tree has been a problem for many years. It grows adjacent to a street light on a busy road thus consuming and blocking the light for pedestrians & road users. it drops debris onto the footpath & road. The tree was last trimmed back in November 2023 and has now grown back over the footpath & road. There are branches breaking out and some panic growth visible. Suspicion that Ash dieback is present. The tree is covered in Ivy so the condition of the stem cannot be seen at this stage. The reason for the replanting of a Liquidambar tree is that it would have a nicer look on the road. T2- Small Nespola tree- Remove this tree. It doesn't add any benefit to the property or area and has been left to grow wild.
