Planning application
8 Magdalen Road SW18 3NP
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Cherry Blossom in rear garden has been attacked by Ivy around the main main section of the tree. It has now split and along with woodworm eating at the main section, the tree is becoming unsafe. I want to remove the tree and replace it with a new sapling or other appropriate vegetation suitable for giving organic growth to the garden.
