P2026/0620/TRE

Description

A mature catalpa tree(A) exists to the front yard of 321 Liverpool Road, London N11NQ. The tree is situated near the public footpath. The applicant is undertaking works to build a roof extension that has full planning permission and listed building consent: P2025/1744/FUL and P2025/1745/LBC. An area in front of the scaffolding to the main house facade needs to be completely clear for the contractor to haul materials up the scaffolding to the rooftop level safely. It is proposed to trim back and prune light branches only up to 3.6m from the main house facade. This will give 1.9m of depth away from the proposed scaffolding across the dull width of the house. This is mostly required in order to lift new steel beams up to to the new extension level. It is proposed that no existing heavy branches of the catalpa tree are cut and/or disturbed. It is proposed to carry out this works as soon as possible and before the tree leafs out in spring. This will disturb the tree the least as it will not bleed sap as much. The pruning will not be very visible at all to the public footpath and will also provide basic maintenance pruning to keep branches of the main house facade and allow in more natural daylighting.
