The Greenwich streets where homes are growing and trees are going
The latest wave of planning applications in the borough reveals a mix of residential upgrades and impactful tree works. Homeowners in Plumstead are at the forefront of residential improvements, applying for loft conversions with rear dormers at 16 Eastview Avenue (ref: 25/1662/CP), and 58 St Margarets Terrace (ref: 25/1589/CP). Meanwhile, 41 High Grove has applied for both a rear extension and a loft conversion under separate prior approval and certificate routes (refs: 25/1614/PN1 and 25/1613/CP). In a shift reflecting changing high street patterns, an estate agency unit at Blackheath Hill is seeking Prior Approval for conversion from commercial use to a single flat (ref: 25/1637/PN2). The Greenwich Peninsula, a hub of long-term growth, continues to see major post-approval activity. A comprehensive list of condition discharge applications was submitted this week, concerning water infrastructure (ref: 25/1498/SD), highways (ref: 25/1492/SD), and various other elements. These applications relate to plots around the O2 and Lower Riverside areas, indicating the ongoing development of this transformative district. Meanwhile, modest household improvements are also in the pipeline. A conservatory replacement is planned at 6 Kinveachy Gardens, Charlton (ref: 25/1603/CP), and a chimney removal paired with a new extension at 6 Rainham Close, Avery Hill (ref: 25/1588/CP). At Franklyn James Estate Agents, a full change of use from commercial to residential is proposed (ref: 25/1637/PN2), reflecting borough-wide adaptive reuse trends. Greenwich is also seeing a flurry of tree works across conservation areas. This includes a routine crown reduction of an elder tree at 64A Hyde Vale, SE10 (ref: 25/1669/TC), and the felling of a Leyland cypress deemed too close to the building at 59 Ashburnham Grove, SE10 (ref: 25/1658/TC). Elsewhere, six elder trees and a hawthorn are set to be removed from land fronting Well Hall Road in Eltham (ref: 25/1608/TC), while fig and lime trees are also marked for attention at various SE10 addresses. This latest planning round-up demonstrates a borough quietly upgrading behind the scenes, with changes being implemented leaf by leaf and brick by brick.
