Dulwich Common, 6

Proposal:

Specie and Location of Tree

Tree ID 8232 An Ash tree approximately 13m in height, situated on the end boundary of the rear garden. The tree is dead throughout the crown and has sparse leaf cover.

Description of Approved Works

Tree ID 8232 Remove.

Details of Replacement Required

As a condition of the removal of Tree ID 8232 above, a replacement tree should be planted in a convenient location of the rear garden and below are the three alternative species for consideration:

Acer campestre (Field Maple)

Sorbus aucuparia (Rowan)

Malus trilobata (Lebanese Crab Apple)

The replacement trees should be planted during the December 2026 to March 2027 planting season, with a stem girth of 10–12 cm measured at 1 m above ground level and a minimum overall height of 2.5 m. The new tree should be securely supported with a suitable stake and tie to prevent wind-rock while the root system becomes established. Regular watering will be required during the first two growing seasons, particularly from April to September. Ideally, a 75-litre tree watering bag should be used to ensure adequate and consistent watering. If the replacement tree dies or becomes seriously diseased within five years of planting, it must be replaced with a new tree of the same specification.
