  47 Sutherland Place London W2 5BY

  T1 Cherry (Prunus spp.) - Rear Garden - Fell to ground level leaving a small stump of 6 - 12 inches. Reason for works- Causing damage to the boundary wall, which as a result will need to be re-built. The owner of the tree is willing to replant a suitable replacement once the wall has been rebuilt. T2 & T3- Lime trees (Tilia spp.)- Carry out a selective crown reduction by removing recent regrowth back to the previous points of reduction. The works will be undertaken to re-establish the original crown framework while maintaining a balanced and uniform canopy. Approximately 50 percent of the fine furnishing growth will be retained throughout the crown to ensure adequate foliage density, support crown continuity, and maintain long-term vitality. Reason for works: General tree maintenance

  Lords Cricket Ground St John's Wood Road London NW8 8QZ

  2 lime trees located to the west of the Allen Stand and north of Lords Tavern, by the Grace Gate entrance from St John's Wood Road. These trees are noted as T7 and T8 on attached plans and reports. Roots belonging to both trees were severed during excavations for service trenches associated with construction of the Allen Stand on site. Static load tests were carried out to both trees in April 2026, which flagged T7 as having an insufficient safety factor. T7 was therefore recommended for a 3m reduction in height to reduce the risk of failure. Due to T7 and T8 forming a continuous canopy, T8 has also been recommended for the same specification of reduction to prevent exposing its crown to excessive wind loading.

  208 Randolph Avenue London W9 1PF

  T3 ? Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus), located in the rear garden of 208 Randolph Avenue, London W9 1PF. Proposed works: Fell T3 Sycamore to ground level and remove the resulting timber and arisings. The tree has been classified as Category U in the Arboricultural Implications Assessment (Report J69.34, dated 12 October 2026) prepared by Broad Oak Tree Consultants. The assessment identifies significant basal decay, a basal cavity, structural deterioration and crown dieback. The report recommends pollarding at approximately 8 metres or felling. Full removal is proposed due to the tree's poor structural condition and associated safety concerns.
