Planning application

MISSELTOR, TILEHURST LANE, BINFIELD, BRACKNELL, RG42 5JS

Awaiting decision Bracknell Forest PA/2026/0776 Tree Work Application (TRTPO Application)

Works: Trees Domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

T9 (Oak) • Crown clean removing dead / dangerous / dysfunctional branches including larger dead branches over highway • Crown lift reducing low pendulous branches on the south side of the crown as required to create up to 3m crown clearance to the front elevation of Misseltor. This work will also have the added benefit of reducing weight of branch beyond weak fork midway. • Reduce low lateral branches on west side of crown only by 1.5-2-5m – from 13.5m to approximately 11m back in line with surrounding canopy to reduce asymmetry of crown and weight of elongated branches and create reasonable clearance to overhead cables. Cuts will be made back to previous reduction points and graded around the canopy to leave a sympathetic and natural-looking canopy shape. Reason: Overall, T9 (Oak) has good vitality and structural condition for its age, although its proximity to adjacent buildings, the highway, multiple underground services and the reported neighbouring subsidence warrant ongoing management and monitoring. Minor works are proposed at this time to raise the canopy in order to create reasonable clearance to Misseltor and overhead utilities and to sensitively reduce the lower canopy overhanging the front driveway of Misseltor with a reduction of selected elongated branches to reduce the overbearing nature of the crown in relation to the dwelling. These are minor works and the general health and wider visual amenity of the tree will not be affected.
