Outside 89 Blackheath Park, Blackheath, London, SE3 0EU
Proposal
T1 Hybrid Oak. This is a BCER-owned street tree adjacent to the boundary of no.89 Blackheath Park. We ask permission for a 2m reduction (from 7m to 5m radial spread) of branches back to suitable growth points on all compass directions on the lower half of the canopy. Nothing to be removed off the height or the upper half of the canopy. Our aim is to discourage more lower lateral growth, which is the problem. Also the removal of the lowest few tertiary branches above the garden building and over the road.
