Planning application
2, Lichfield Road, Kew, Richmond, TW9 3JR
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
5 DAY DANGEROUS TREE NOTICE Acacia mimosa, which has suffered a full structural failure. The main stem has split vertically through the centre, resulting in a complete loss of structural integrity. The failure is significant and there is no viable remedial pruning or retention option available. Due to the extent of the split, the tree now presents an immediate risk of collapse. In its current condition, it cannot be made safe without full removal.
