Proposal

East Molesey Kent Town Conservation Area - The tree that needs to be removed is an Ash tree which is causing structural damage to the front left hand side of the property, as shown in the sketch provided the highlighted lines indicate the area that will need to be underpinned due the the roots of the tree causing damage to the foundation. This has also been confirmed by a structural engineer. Also indicted is the location of a crack the runs down the side of the building which has been caused by the front left hand side dropping. We can send photos of the damage if required.
