  14. Final Decision2026/0254

    East Molesey Kent Town Conservation Area - TG1 - Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) - 2 trees both the same location on map and work specification Two Sycamore trees (Acer pseudoplatanus) Proposed works (description) Crown reduction of both Sycamore trees by an average of approximately 1.5 metres, with over-extended limbs reduced by up to 2 metres. Works to be carried out evenly and selectively throughout the crowns to maintain their current overall size and to leave a natural, flowing, and aesthetically pleasing crown form. Maximum pruning wound diameter not to exceed 50mm. Reason for works The proposed crown reduction is intended to maintain the trees at or close to their current crown dimensions and to prevent further increase in size due to the trees being in very close proximity to the building at the rear of the property. The trees have been heavily reduced in the past, and continued cyclical crown management is considered appropriate to control regrowth, maintain structural balance, and reduce the need for more severe works in the future. All works will be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010 - Tree Work Recommendations, with the aim of retaining the trees while having only a limited impact on their health, amenity value, and long-term condition.
