Flat D, 129 Upper Tulse Hill, London, SW2 2RD

Certificate of Lawful Development (Proposed) with respect to the de-conversion of two residential units into a single dwellinghouse.

T726 Purple Plum - Create a new pollarded crown at a height of 3m - A number of limbs have failed in recent years. Cavity at main break. Close to school entrance, high pedestrian traffic. To retain the tree in some form. T19 Oak - Conduct a vertical and horizontal reduction of the crown to establish a 3m gap between the adjacent block of flats and the remaining crown of the tree. To provide light to the adjacent property. T82 Plane - Conduct a vertical and horizontal reduction of the crown to establish a 3m gap between the adjacent block of flats and the remaining crown of the tree. To provide light to the adjacent property. T147 Willow - Pollard to reduce height from 14m to 12m and radius from 12m to 8m on all sides. To maintain tree stability due to decay at base of stem and decay at 5m. T187 Plane - Reduce overextended limb on south side of crown by 3m from a radius of 10m to 7m. To maintain the integrity of this limb and balance crown. T204 Plane - Conduct a vertical and horizontal reduction of the crown to establish a 3m gap between the adjacent block of flats and the remaining crown of the tree. On the East and North side of crown. To provide light to the adjacent properties. T321 Plane - Conduct a vertical and horizontal reduction of the crown to establish a 3m gap between the adjacent block of flats and the remaining crown of the tree. To provide light to the adjacent property.

(T1) Sycamore Pollard to previous historic points by approx 50% and reshape. Remove the lowest stem back to the main trunk (see photo). Height from 12.0m to 4.0m Crown spread from 7.0m to 3.0m Tree is walled in, too large for environment. The tree has a decaying cavity at its base, making it unstable - this is particularly the reason for limb removal.
