Norfolk House Road Street Tree Felling

Following investigations as part of Lambeth council’s normal tree management practices, this tree has been conclusively implicated in subsidence related damage to property, and regrettably, will be removed to prevent further damage. We received one submission to the consultation in support of the felling.

Please note that as part of our policy to not remove healthy trees wherever possible, all other reasonable mitigation measures, such as a crown reduction, were evaluated and in this instance have been deemed unsuitable.

We will consider suitable replacement tree planting at this location, with any replacement tree species to be selected for low water usage. Replacement planting will be subject to available funding, with prioritisation based on the criteria set out in the Lambeth Urban Forest Strategy (see https://www.lambeth.gov.uk/parks-sports-leisure/parks/tree-planting)
