Planning application
159 Grove Lane London Southwark SE5 8BG
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Works to a tree in a Conservation Area - (T1) Silver Birch: section fell to ground level. Two Silver Birch were planted very close together (2.3m apart) and as such, T1 is not flourishing. The felling of T1 will benefit the other Silver Birch, giving it extra space and light. Plant 1 x Damson 4-5m height to mitigate loss of screening and amenity.
