Planning application
1 Lyndhurst Square London Southwark SE15 5AR
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 -XL Holm Oak tree. We have historically reduced this tree every 4 years. This has lapsed recently. To manage this tree at a smaller size I recommend pollarding this tree by 50% to a smaller structure that future reductions can be managed from.
