Mulberry Close 6 A North Drive SW16 1RW
North Drive frontage : TPO 53/1984T20 Oak and T22 Sycamore - reduce by 1 metre to leave 5 metres. Reason for work : to reduce the wind sail effect as they are growing close to building. T21 Yew - The 3 Yew trees are growing together in a group, underneath T2 & T22. It is not possible to tell from the official TPO plan which is the TPO tree. We assume that the largest of the three is the TPO tree. Reason for work : The Yews are viewable to the passing public, being close to the pavement. The untidy growth, particularly at the base, traps litter and looks unsightly. If not maintained regularly, the trees will grow upwards and compete with the adjacent trees.
