Planning application
5a Munster Road Teddington
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T2 – Oak: Reduce crown height and lateral spread by approximately 2 metres, cutting back to suitable secondary growth points in accordance with BS3998:2010 (Tree Work – Recommendations), to maintain a natural shape and balanced crown. Current height approximately 18 metres, reduced height will be 16 metres. Current spread approximately 18 metres, reduced spread will be 16 metres. Reason: To manage the overall size of the tree within its residential garden setting, improve light levels to the property and garden as well as neighbouring gardens, and reduce end-weight on lateral limbs to minimise the risk of branch failure, ensuring the tree can be retained in good condition long-term.
