Planning application

Thames Eyot Cross Deep Twickenham TW1 4QL

Granted Richmond upon Thames 23/T0175/TCA Works to Tree/s in Conservation Area

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

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

Proposal

Horse chestnut (T1): Height, 17m. DBH, 82cm. Tree has bracket fungus at base that is probably Rigidoporus ulmarius, which causes brown rot in the base and buttresses of it's host. The tree is growing close to an old boundary wall that will, in time, be damaged by it. Because horse chestnut leaves are large, the tree casts a very deep shade over the gardens of both the Thames Eyot flats and adjacent properties. The works to be carried out are to dismantle and fell the tree, replanting with a smaller species such as an ornamental cherry.

    HIGH PRIORITY: T001 - Lime tree adjacent to A310 - Remove tree due to patch of decay at base with presence of Kretzschmaria duesta fungus (see photographs). Please note that we recommend that this is removed as a very high priority (within one month). T006: Beech tree within rear garden, Meripilus giganteus around base - Client wishes to retain tree but reduce in overall height and spread, and crown lift. We recommend a significant reduction in height from 25m to approximately 10m, crown lift from 2.5m to 5m, and a canopy reduction from a radius of C. 12m to 4m in every direction. The aim of such pruning is to keep a large volume of habitat rather than keep the tree alive and healthy, as it has a limited safe useful life expectancy. T008: Dead/dying tree with diameter of 10cm - Remove.
