32 Dents Road SW11 6JA
Willow tree at junction of 9 Blenkarne Road, 11 Blenkarne Road, 31 Dents Road, 32 Dents Road. Permission sought to prune back to previous pruning points. An application to prune this tree ( 2025/3127) has already been approved but it only specified a crown reduction. I have been informed that another application is needed to prune back to previous pruning points. It would be much appreciated if this could be approved earlier than 6 weeks if this application is unnecessary. Permission of the tree owner (Neil Graham) has been obtained.

T001 - Sessile Oak in back garden of 7 Blenkarne Road which requires root pruning to allow space for building agreed in planning permission. The excavation trial pit has unearthed roots travelling within the soil underneath an existing concrete slab within the garden. There are 5 roots above 25mm which require pruning the total length of the removal of each root 1.5m back to the edge of the proposed building edge. Due to the length of roots being minimal the roots don't offer significant stability and represent a small amount of the rooting system. A root barrier will be put in place after pruning to stop future encroachment onto the new building. Root diameters at point of proposed pruning: Lone root Root 1 - 65mm (large due to root forking) Included in cluster- Roots 2 - 29mm Root 3 - 40mm Root 4 - 25mm Root 5 - 55mm
