• Bromley will only undertake works to a tree for an identified health & safety or highway obstruction issue. Please note that as outlined in our Tree Management Strategy Trees – London Borough of Bromley

  Council will not prune or remove trees in relation to the following: • Branches overhanging property boundaries or buildings • Lack of light • Where a tree is thought be too tall, large, or old • Interference with solar panels or satellite, TV, or other media reception • Branches and/or limbs in physical contact with telephone wires or power wires • Leaf fall • Fruit fall • Shedding of small twigs. Nor will we remove leaf and branch debris at the base of a tree which serves to protect roots and protects the tree from lawn mowers, strimmers and dogs • Problems associated with pollen • Excreta caused by insects or birds • Obstruction of the view from house windows, gardens, balconies etc

  The situation will be reviewed cyclically as part of our programme of tree condition surveys and safety inspections.

  State changed to: No further action
