2 Ashley Road Thames Ditton Surrey KT7 0NJAwaiting decisionThames Ditton Conservation Area - The tree with the protection order is a Beech Tree. I want to get this tree crowned. On my sketch plan this tree is marked with a green coloured "X". The reason for the proposed crowning is that the tree is now growing amongst power lines, dropping beech nuts onto pedestrians below, and blocking the light out from the rooms in my house. Its also overhanging my roof allowing squirrels access to my roof and potentially into my loft. The two other trees in question that sit either just within or just outside my boundaries are both Sycamore trees. Again, i want to get these trees crowned. On my sketch plan these trees are marked with 2 blue coloured "X"s.
