Planning application
Donne Court Burbage Road London Southwark
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Works to a Tree with a TPO: T1 (Horse Chestnut) - Remove T2 & T3 (Horse Chestnut) - Repollard and repeat at 2-year intervals for a period of 10 years. Reasons: a. The property has been the subject of movement which engineers consider to be attributable to the role of vegetation on an underlying clay soil. b. Site investigations confirm the clay soil and levels of desiccation which support the view trees are of influence. c. The onset timing of damage is wholly consistent with the potential that it is caused by tree(s). d. Level monitoring is supportive of the view vegetation is causal. e. The tree identified for removal is the largest/ closest vegetation to the affected part of the building. It is hoped that its removal will mitigate the influence and facilitate the retention of other surveyed trees. f. Pruning to T2 & T3 seeks to establish a managed canopy framework allow future pruning works which will seek to retain the trees in a managed form.
