Summary

The owner of a Wembley home has applied to work on a horse chestnut tree in the back garden. They want to remove branches that hang over the driveway and roof. They also want to reduce the tree's overall size.

The tree is about 16 metres tall (roughly as tall as a five-storey building). Its branches spread around 11 metres wide. A professional tree specialist will carry out the work.

The application mentions a registered tree area. If this tree is protected, the council must give consent before any work can start.

What the council wrote

There a number of overgrown trees in the back gardens in St Andrews Avenue - area 08/00066. This particular Horse chestnut tree is in the back garden of 11 St Andrews Avenue HA0 2QB. Please see attached map According to my estimation, this tree is at least 16 metres high and its spread is 11metres. I wish to cut back at least the 5 metres that overhang over my driveway and the roof of my property and if possible reduce the crown by 4 metres I intend to use a professional arborist to advise and carry out the works.
