Application Details
Description

Tree Preeservation Order EL:146 - Tree Species: Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) Height: 24m Trunk Diameter: 1052mm Canopy Spread: NE6m SE4m SW6m NW8m Crown Hight: 9m Mature Tree in poor condition but fair structural condition. Number used in the sketch plan T2 (which matches the tree survey must is not readily identifiable on the TPO). The tree survey identifies T2 as requiring removal on safety grounds. T2 is considered to be U category due its poor physiological and structural condition. The survey identifies poor vitality demonstrated by significant dieback and excessive deadwood. Significant areas of necrotic bark on the southern buttressing and upper root. Significantly decayed upper root at 400mm from main stem connected to 125mm opening with decay and small cavity on south-western buttress. Bark wounds on western buttress. Wound with decay on north-western buttress. Proposed works are to fell tree to ground level. Given the proximity of the T1 to T2, we request that no replacement tree be required. T1 and T2 compete given their proximity and T1 is already leaning toward the neighbouring property (number 48 NE boundary). As you will see from the tree survey, the condition of the remaining 3 trees at the property is category C and they are large trees for the space available.
