Awaiting decision Southwark 25/AP/3353 Works to a Tree in a Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

London Plane (T1) Tree works granted permission 6 years ago (application ref: 19/AP/0096), the works now currently proposed are as follows: remove new growth since 2019 back to previous points of reduction in order to reduce impact of branches touching Guinness Partnership owned buildings in De Laune Street, to rear of applicant's garden. In addition, the pruning works will help to retain the overall shape of the crown and will help to reduce shading to the applicant's garden and to the neighbouring garden (143 Kennington Park Road).

As published by the council, reference 25/AP/3353
