Devonshire Court Holmesdale Road Kew Richmond TW9 3JY

Awaiting decision Richmond upon Thames PA26/3020 Works to Tree/s in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Back Garden (Right Boundary) T1: Pine tree - Fell to ground level Height of tree currently: 5m Height of tree after reduction: 0m Spread of tree currently: 3m Spread of tree after reduction: 0m Reason for Works: We are looking to remove the tree due to its location and the potential for damage to the neighbouring walls, as it is situated in the corner where three properties meet. The client is happy to replant with a more appropriate tree species for the location.

As published by the council, reference PA26/3020

    Crown reduction of about 1.5 metres - Pruning will result in Crown reduction of height by 1.5-2metres and width reduction by 1.5-2metres, leaving a canopy spread of 3 metres and height of 5 metres - from one sycamore tree at the front of Kent House, 240 Kew Road. The tree is situated within the curtilage of Kent House at the corner of Kew Road and Holmesdale Road. The reduction is only of new growth from the last pruning, approved by your office 3 years ago in 2020. This is to prevent growth over the adjoining pavements and roads and towards the structure of Kent House. This sycamore tree grows very rapidly. See attached plan and photograph.
