Planning application

Tree T138 at the entrance to , Palm Hills Estate , London Road , Bracknell , RG12 9TN

Withdrawn Bracknell Forest PA/2026/0398 Consent under Tree Preservation Orders

Works: Trees

Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.

Proposal

The tree is identified as T138 in the approved Arboricultural Impact Assessment and Tree Condition Survey produced by ‘Ruskins Tree Consultancy’ in April 2020 ref. 0420-8121 Rev1. The tree a cat C2 oak is shown in the photos contained in the ACD report and is located north of the electricity substation on the access to the residential development of Palm Hills. It is recommended that the tree is removed as soon as possible with sections of deadwood located above the footpath and in proximity to the road. A replacement semi mature tree is proposed in its place. The replacement tree is not proposed in the same location due to the potential of ‘sudden oak death’ affecting the new oak, so instead we have shown a replacement semi mature Lime in the same location.

    39 CAMBRIDGE ROAD, CROWTHORNE, RG45 7EP

    T16 - Mature Walnut Tree - Crown lift mature walnut to approximately 3m above ground level by the selective removal of lower branches to improve pedestrian clearance, access and maintenance beneath the crown and provide appropriate clearance from the adjacent garden structure. Retain the natural form and overall character of the tree. Description and reason for works: The mature walnut tree is proposed to be crown lifted to approximately 3 metres above ground level , by the selective removal and shortening of lower branches where appropriate. The lower crown currently extends down into the garden area and across the pedestrian access route, creating restricted clearance beneath the tree and interfering with the practical use and maintenance of the area. The low branches also extend towards and over the adjacent garden structure and restrict access around the building. The proposed crown lifting is intended to provide improved headroom and pedestrian clearance , allowing the area beneath and around the tree to be used and maintained safely and effectively. It will also provide suitable clearance from the adjacent garden building whilst reducing the likelihood of lower branches being damaged through regular pedestrian activity and maintenance operations. The works will be undertaken selectively, removing only those lower branches necessary to achieve an approximately 3-metre crown clearance . The natural form, structural framework and overall appearance of the walnut will be retained, with no unnecessary removal of healthy upper-canopy growth. All pruning will be carried out in accordance with good arboricultural practice, with pruning cuts made at suitable branch unions and positioned to minimise unnecessary wounding. The intention is to retain the mature walnut as an important landscape and amenity tree whilst improving clearance and access beneath its crown . G2 - 1 x Silver Birch - Remove major deadwood
