59 Grove Park London Southwark SE5 8LF
Approved on 13 May 2026
Council decision: Tree Works/Conservation Area - GRANTED
Proposal
Works to trees in a conservation area: Trees 1 & 2: Acer pseudoplatanus small self-seeded. Fell and grind out the stumps before they become mature and create excessive shade in the garden. Tree 3: Prunus sp. Self-seeded hard against the fence. Fell and remove the stump so the fence can be replaced and a new border created. Tree 4: Taxus baccata. Previoulsy coppiced. The tree is within the footprint of a proposed house extension, so needs to be removed. Please refer to planning applicaton 25/AP/2822. Tree 5: Taxus baccata. This yew tree has one overly long branch which extends beyond the general profile of the tree. The proposal is to reduce the length of this branch to create a more regular shape. Tree 6: Taxus baccata. The proposal is to prune this tree by up to 30% to train the tree into a more regular shape. Plant four trees including Acer tataricum, Cercis siliquastrum, Crateagus x persimilis, Cornus mas, minimum 2.5m height.
