To discuss the Trees in Meadow Road

The island in Meadow Road has village green status and is not owned by Elmbridge Borough Council. A resident had contacted the Clerk regarding two trees on the island which have died. Cllr Bray has since had contact with the resident regarding this matter and it has been agreed that we ask the resident for two quotes for felling the trees. We have a spending limit for this and so will wait for quotes. It was noted by Cllr Holt that we should maybe look to replace the two trees and Cllr Bray will ask if this is appropriate in the circumstances. ACTION – Cllr Bray

Historical Notes

During the 1920s and 1930s much infilling along existing roads took place, together with the development of new roads and housing estates such as Meadow Road, Torrington Road, Dalmore Avenue, Cornwall Avenue and Hillview Road. Building came to a stop during the Second World War, and did not get underway again until the 1950s when the Slough Farm council estate between Telegraph Lane and Oaken Lane was built, as also were the much smaller estates of Rosehill and Fairlawn Close which took their names from the old houses they replaced.
