ROYAL PARKS, GREENWICH PARK, BLACKHEATH AVENUE, GREENWICH, SE10 (IN FRONT OF RANGERS HOUSE IN ROSE GARDEN)
We would like to remove a 12 year old Cedar Tree and stump grind in the Rose Garden at Greenwich Park. The Rose Garden is going through a full refurbishment, this is due to the health of the roses within the garden and deteriorating infrastructure. A new design with mixed planting, pergolas and accessible path that provides a bio-diverse mix of plants that is more sustainable for the future will be undertaken in Winter 2024/25. The design takes on the symmetry required for the frontage and view from Rangers House and will feature two pergolas on either side of the rose garden, shown in the attached plan. The Cedar in question would be in the middle of an accessible path that has been designed and would impact the symmetry of the pergolas and planting scheme, making it difficult to establish any new plants. We have met with RBG Tree Officer Debi Rogers on site on the 17th September to review the plans and the tree in question. We will be replanting two new Cedars in close proximity, shown in one of the attached plans.
