2026/1742 - Tree Preservation Order Registered

Proposal

Tree Preservation Order EL: - One mature tree located within the rear garden of 5 Marrowells, Weybridge, Surrey KT13 9RN (as identified on the attached sketch plan). Proposed Works: Remove all dead, dying, diseased, damaged, and hazardous branches throughout the crown. Undertake a crown reduction of approximately 20???25% to reduce the overall spread and weight of the canopy. Prune back branches encroaching over neighbouring properties to provide suitable clearance from boundaries. Remove any crossing or rubbing branches where appropriate. Carry out general crown maintenance to improve the tree's health, safety, and long-term management. Reason for Works: The tree has previously undergone limited maintenance, primarily involving the removal of dead branches. Since that time, additional branches have become dead or are showing signs of decline. The tree has become significantly overgrown, with branches extending into neighbouring gardens. There are concerns regarding the risk of falling deadwood, particularly as the garden is used by families and children. Previous branch failures have occurred, including incidents reported by neighbouring residents. The proposed works are intended to reduce the risk to people and property while retaining and appropriately managing the tree. Data via plota.co.uk
