262988PTC - Works to a tree Conservation Area Approved

Proposal

G1 x3 Poplar trees - situated along the northern/NW boundary of the allotment- are overhanging active allotment plots that are used regularly throughout the year - weight reduction on southern side of the trees only, focusing the pruning on the branches that are most likely to fail in the near future (next 2-3 years). Job specification: G1 - Row of poplar trees, crown reduce the southern aspect of the trees only, reducing the lateral branches that are growing over the plots/most prone to limb failure, by reducing them by approximately 30-50% in length. This will reduce the risk of failure from occurring down to a tolerable level. Due to the nature of these trees, there is still inherent risks associated with them. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 10

Flood zone 2, rivers and sea
Medium chance: between a 1 in 100 and 1 in 1,000 annual chance from rivers, or 1 in 200 to 1 in 1,000 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.

Metropolitan Open Land
Green belt level protection inside London.
The London Plan gives Metropolitan Open Land the same protection as green belt: inappropriate development needs very special circumstances.
St Mark's Church and Canal 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.
