Granted Runnymede RU.23/1118 Trees

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T160 Norway Maple crown lift to 5m above ground level, Thin out by no more than 10% of the crown volume by removing crossing, broken or weak branches. Remove all deadwood. To improve the light levels to the area below, reduce the side laterals from rubbing on adjacent trees, shrubs and hedges and to protect the pupils form falling deadwood (minor). The Nursery are keen to improve light levels into the area below that is play surface during the winter months and reduce the risk of moss growth etc, but also to keep the highly valued shade during the summer. A balanced approach to the works is sort.

  • RU.26/0576 Granted

    71 A Harpesford Avenue Virginia Water Surrey GU25 4RG

    T1 - Oak at front - fell - tree has Acute Oak Decline (AOD) The tree is in advanced decline, almost dead, due AOD evidenced by weeping exudates on the main stem and progressive and advanced canopy dieback monitored over 5+ years. Structural integrity and vitality are now significantly compromised. Given its proximity to the dwelling and highway (high target occupancy), retention presents an unacceptable foreseeable risk of failure and liability under duty of care obligations. Felling is therefore justified on arboricultural safety grounds.
