About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

Robinia - Fell & Remove - to ground level, or as close as possible and remove all arisings. Grind stump. The tree is showing visible signs of decline, with decay evident around the roots. Due to concerns over its long-term health and structural stability, particularly given its proximity to the property and surrounding hard landscaping, the customer would like to remove it before it becomes a safety risk. The customer believes the tree has outgrown its location and is no longer suitable for the space.

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.
