Awaiting decision Richmond upon Thames PA26/3287 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

L1 Lime - fell. We are unsure if this is covered by a TPO as it is sandwiched between 2 fine TPO trees (Chestnut and Plane). It has been brutally pollarded by our neighbours in River Reach over the last 15 years and no longer has any discerning character other than the main trunk. Due to the size of the adjacent TPO trees it is unlikely that any new tree would grow so we are not proposing replacement. S1 & S2 Sycamores - fell. These are self-seeded saplings that have grown larger in an inappropriate position under the canopies of adjacent TPO trees. C1 Cedar - This has grown considerably over the past 15 years and has now caused subsidence to our property. The insurance company has recommended it is felled.
