Trees & landscaping

Proposal

Juniperus communis in front garden on Heathcote road, on boundary with Number 20 Heathcote Road to be removed as it is blocking light and difficult to maintain in order to keep the pavement clear. Large conifer in the front garden of 22 Heathcote Road to be removed completely due to excessive shading, low amenity value and needing to keep the pavement clear. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 6

Church Street, Epsom conservation area
Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.
The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.
Council document ↗
Article 4 direction
Church Street (Epsom). Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.
An Article 4 direction withdraws particular permitted development rights, so work that would normally need no application needs one here. Not every council has published its directions.
Public footpath 26 m away
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site: obstructing a path without a diversion order is an offence, and work cannot start until the order is confirmed.
Compiled from highway authority data, not the legal definitive map. A few authorities have not published, so no path shown is not proof there is none.
7 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: Melrose Cottage, Grade II, 50 m away · 1 Grade II*, 6 Grade II
The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.
