Planning application
19 Dulwich Wood Avenue London Southwark SE19 1HB
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 Silver Birch reduction up to 2 metres (TPO449), reduction to suitable branch junctions and retaining form in keeping with BS3998.2010. Wherever practicable, pruning should be restricted to healthy, small-diameter parts of the tree, as this will minimize the size of the resultant wounds and provide the greatest opportunity for these to be occluded.Species of Betula, which generally have particularly weak defences against the development of decay, should be pruned as sparingly as possible and without exposing heartwood or ripewood.The above guidance for Betula should be observed for any other species or cultivars known to have similarly weak defences.
