10 New College Square Upper Heyford OX25 5NG

Awaiting decision Cherwell 25/01386/TCA Works To Trees In Conservation Area

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

To remove and grind out x1 large Eucalyptus tree, this tree has outgrown its surroundings, my client has reduced this tree many times over the years to retain it, but we feel the tree is too big for its position and the surrounding neighbours are becoming anxious of its size.

As published by the council, reference 25/01386/TCA
