4 OXFORDSHIRE PLACE, WARFIELD, BRACKNELL, RG42 3QA

Granted Bracknell Forest PA/2026/0186 Tree Work Application (TRTPO Application)

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

There are 2 Oak trees in my garden under TPO. Permission has been granted in the past to have a crown reduction. Neil Barton Bracknell Forest, has been to the property in the past and has said the trees are 70-80 years old and as they are in a small residential garden near to properties, they will need regular maintenance pruning for the tree health (every 4-5 years) and for us as a family to enjoy our garden. One is closer to the property than the other. It was recommended to have crown reduction of at least 1 metre of each tree, this has been done in the past and improved the light to my property and that of my neighbours in 2013, and in 2021. The trees have grown since the last prune back to the height and width of the last pruning, the trees are approx 17m high. We are requesting permision to allow a crown reduction of 1 - 1.5 metre on both T1 and T2, this work is undertaken by registered tree surgeons, usually Tree Solutions.

    1 SEYMOUR DRIVE, ASCOT, SL5 8FX

    T1 - Norway Maple - Reduce canopy height and lateral spread 3-4m back towards previous reduction points. Cuts will be made back to suitable growth points from which point the tree can be maintained in a reduced pollarded form. Reason: T1 (Norway Maple) is a suppressed tree of poor form and with a stem defect. The overhanging canopy of T1 has a significant impact on the garden of 1 Seymour Drive and breaking branches cause a nuisance to residents. Works are recommended to reduce the canopy to alleviate the nuisance to residents from which point the tree can be managed in a reduced pollarded form. As the tree has no wider visual amenity value from a public viewpoint, the quality and canopy cover of trees within the Brackens Estate and wider Woodland Tree Preservation Order will not be undermined.
