P/2026/02190/TREE - Works to Tree(s) in Conservation Area REGISTERED: Under Assessment

Proposal

T1 Robinia: Fell to ground level The tree has outgrown its available location and is poorly positioned in relation to the surrounding properties and neighbouring gardens. Its size and spread are no longer considered suitable for the restricted location, with the overgrown canopy causing increasing encroachment and adverse impact on neighbouring properties. Removal is therefore proposed as the most appropriate long-term management option, rather than continued repeated heavy pruning to contain a tree that is fundamentally unsuitable for its current position.

Site constraints 8

Flood zone 3, rivers and sea
High chance: a 1 in 100 or greater annual chance from rivers, or 1 in 200 from the sea. Any development here needs a flood risk assessment. Defences are not counted.
The Environment Agency flood map for planning. Homes in zone 3 must also pass the sequential test. Surface water flooding is a separate map.
Flood map ↗
Crabtree conservation area
Also 49. 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.
Air quality management area: Hammersmith and Fulham AQMA
The council has declared the area as failing an air quality objective.
Schemes that add traffic, parking or combustion plant are assessed against the area's action plan and may need an air quality assessment.
Council record ↗
National infrastructure project 15 m away: Thames Tideway Tunnel
The site is 15 m from the project boundary. Waste water treatment, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted.
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
Planning Inspectorate project page ↗
1 listed building within 150 m
Nearest: Queens Manor School With Associated School Keeper's House, Boundary Wall, Entrance Arches, Outdoor Wcs and Play Sheds, Grade II, 59 m away
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.
Historic England ↗
Also on the record
SSSI 415 m away: Barn Elms Wetland Centre SSSI; Inside the Hammersmith and Fulham built-up area; Public transport access: PTAL 2 (poor), TfL 2023, for the 100 m square.
Not affected
Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site
