Summary
The owner wants to trim the ash tree at The Plantation in Blackheath.
The whole tree would be cut back by about two fifths. New branch heads would be kept short in future. This would change the tree's shape and size.
The council will decide after the comment period. The plans do not say the work is already done or approved.

What the council wrote
Common Ash Tree (Fraxinus excelsior): Crown reduction of entire crown by 40% to new pollard heads. Crown thin if new pollard heads are overcrowded. New crown heads will be maintained in the future for repollarding. Reason for works : an ongoing repeat maintanance programme of the identified tree, agreed with buildings insurers after subsidence works in 1994 resolved with rebuilding the adjacent garage and under pinning house.
