Proposal

Image 1 ??? Photo of Trees to be removed from the Rear Garden of 36 Rosehill Road, SW18 2NX See email for images Image 2 ??? Planning Sketch of tress to be removed ??? Trees shown below are indicative images and not representative of a particular tree type See email for images Tree 1 is a mature tree (identified by a local contractor as a bay tree) located in the rear garden adjacent to the boundary fence. The tree is of significant height and has outgrown its location. Proposed works: Fell to ground level and treat stump to prevent regrowth. Reason: The tree is excessively large for its location and causes significant shading to the garden and neighbouring properties. Due to its size and proximity to boundaries, ongoing management is not practical. Removal is proposed to improve light and allow replacement with a more suitable species. ________________________________________ Tree 2 is a multi-stem evergreen tree (identified by a local contractor as Japanese privet) located along the rear boundary, forming a dense canopy. Proposed works: Fell to ground level and treat stump to prevent regrowth. Reason: The tree has become overgrown and dense, causing shading and overhang into neighbouring property. Removal is proposed to improve light and allow for more appropriate boundary planting. ________________________________________ Tree 3 is a multi-stem evergreen tree (identified by contractor as Japanese privet) located along the rear boundary, forming dense vegetation adjacent to neighbouring structures. Proposed works: Fell to ground level and treat stump to prevent regrowth. Reason: The tree contributes to excessive shading and bulk along the boundary. Removal is proposed to improve light and allow for better long-term management and replacement planting.
