    2 COMMON ASH - FRAXINUS EXCELSIOR (TAG NO 1 & 2 ON ATTACHED MAP) WORKS RELATING TO THIS APPLICATION: Pollard both tree tag 1 & 2 removing the top third of both crowns. Reshape if appropriate. REASON: Damage caused by vehicular traffic up Court Road on 14 October 2024 and our emergency remediation works were detailed in the email of 17 October 2024 sent to the Royal Borough of Greenwich Tree Officer @ 13:27. Subsequently there have been two further sections of one or both trees that have come down during high winds on 20 June 2025 and 28 June 2025. There is also a further breakage in the canopy which will fall down over the flower bed in due course. Our view is contrary to the Ash Dieback Class 1 shown in the April 2024 Report, as the frequency of these breakages are increasing. It is also been noticed that the Ash "keys/samaras" have turned black whereas those on healthier trees are the light green colour one would expect. We feel this indicates extreme stress on the trees through possible exacerbation of Ash Dieback, as well as possible effect from drought.

  14. Decided25/2326/TC

    SYCAMORE - ACER PSEUDOPLATANUS (TAG NO 15 ON ATTACHED MAP) WORKS RELATING TO THIS APPLICATION: All dead branches to be removed. Reduce all lateral branches on the South/South West side by 2.5 metres to balance tree. Thin by 20% overall. Once tree is accessed a full & detailed assessment of the old longitudinal crack in lateral SE branch to be made and any resulting remediation work to be carried out at the same time. REASON: The likelihood of failure of dead branches has been evident from recent wind damage as Sycamore branches are not resilient when dead and advance decay is likely. These works were mentioned in the June 2021 report and given a category 2 rating by Down to Earth Trees Limited i.e. within 6 months of the report. Again issues mentioned in the April 2024 report labelled once more as a category 2, but unfortunately the Management Company were not in a position to carry out these works owing to other more urgent requirements. The Royal Borough of Greenwich Tree Officer inspected this tree during her site visit on the 20 June 2024 @ 2pm, was fully aware of the tree condition then and confirmed that work needed to be carried out on this specimen at the earliest opportunity. Since that meeting in June 2024 the tree has deteriorated and more damage/decay is evident.

    WESTERN RED CEDAR - THUJA PLICATA (TAG NO 16 ON ATTACHED MAP) WORKS RELATING TO THIS APPLICATION: Perform a crown lift of 4 metres. REASON: The attached photographs were taken from the ground looking upwards towards the balcony at the rear of Flat 1/96. We were not able to access the balcony itself at the time, but suffice to say the lower section of this Cedar has grown considerably and the branches are almost touching the balcony and obviously restricting much of the light to the lounge of Flat 1/96.

  16. Decided25/2328/TC

    Dead Lawson Cypress (T1) located at the end of the garden near the fence. Approx. 10m in height and 5m in spread. Request to fell to near ground level. The tree began declining in July 2024. Following arboricultural advice, it was retained in case of recovery. As of July 2025, it is approximately 99% dead, with no signs of recovery and extensive bark damage caused by wildlife. The tree will be replaced with a hardier Thuja plicata 'Atrovirens' (T2), to be planted approximately 2.5 metres to the right of the original location (T1), to maintain screening and continuity.

    COMMON ASH - FRAXINUS EXCELSIOR (TAG NO 26 ON ATTACHED MAP) WORKS RELATING TO THIS APPLICATION: Fell the complete SW facing stem of this multi stem Ash Tree REASON: Dead branches were removed during works carried out on Monday 15 July 2024. Whilst the included basal union was regarded as low concern in April 2024 & its likelihood of failure was considered moderate to low, the attached photographs show continuing Ash Dieback of between Fraxinus Vitality Classes 3 and 4. The tree inspector was fully aware of the tree condition then and it has deteriorated since then because of evident Dieback and the effects of the constant high winds we have had over the 2024/25 winter and this spring.

    COMMON HOLLY - ILEX AQUIFOLIUM (TAG NO 47 ON ATTACHED MAP) WORKS RELATING TO THIS APPLICATION: Fell and remove entire tree REASON: As stated in email of 11th April 2025 @ 15:28 Has developed two significant areas of dead foliage in the lower branches close to head height over the last month or so; The trunk seems to have moved further eastwards over the winter, probably because there are no live branches on its north or northwest face. We presume these dead branches and canopy have died because of crowding by neighbouring trees; There are many dead stems in the upper crown and the whole tree is showing signs of advanced decline, which is now being exacerbated by the recent dying branches. This evident decay is continuing and as of July 2025 the majority of living foliage comes from neighbouring trees which would benefit after the felling of this Holly.
