Trees In Eaton Square London SW1W 9DA
100% historically approved · decision due ~2 Jun
T230 - Platanus x hispanica (London Plane): Reduce faulted limb(s) - reducing the lowest limb to the north (attached at around 4 m) by approximately 7 m, retaining the two prominant branches (attached at around 2.5 and 3.5 m out from the primary union), due to significant decay and hollowing evidenced during recent decay investigations (see attached report). The second branch from the main union (at around 3.5 m), ascends and should form the new terminal section of the limb. Both retained branches should be left intact.
