Planning applications in South Oxfordshire, February 2014

Kingwood, Rotherfield Peppard

Overview (follow up survey and resistograph): the inspection date in December was useful to see the tree in dormancy. The extensive dieback was quite apparent and not disguised by foliage. The consistency of this dieback and the diameter of some dying stems (approx 100mm) implies that the tree is in non reversible retrenchment. Significant targets below include pedestrian areas and parking so the tree is currently presenting a hazardous status. I cannot confirm whether the minute fruiting body is Kretzschmaria deusta as the fungal strategy of this pathogen is a Spring/early Summer one (fruiting body formation). Resistograph testing was carried out on the 18 December 013 on the north and sides just above ground level in between buttresses at a 10 degree angle. No structural compromise was recorded, however the level of resistance (hardness) would imply an element of brittleness prior to more advanced decay which is normally a "white rot". There is evidence of construction activities within the root protection area and the tree also is slightly suppressed from two quite dominant neighbours trees. On the basis of the above I believe that any mitigation pruning would not be effective in the long term and that the tree should be felled on safety grounds. The tree is subject to a TPO and replanting in this area requires a carefully chosen species to deal with dappled shade so I would suggest a Quercus ilex (Evergreen Oak) or a Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas Fir).

Woodcote Saw Mill, Pot Kiln Lane, Goring Heath, Reading

Please see attached photograph. I have lived at No.2 since 1973 and this tree was then, I suspect, a self seeded sapling. Prior to 2004, as can be seen, it was topped to allow light into the garden. This area of land has always been used since the houses were built in circa 1968. When we were given the opportunity to buy the little bit of woodland adjoinig our gardens a TPO was put on all the trees in a large area of the woodland. I would like to either take the tree down and replace, or certainly have it topped. Another beech nearby dropped a branch late last year and I am concerned that the more diseased trunk (6) might eventually fall. As a pensioner I do not have a lot of money but a tree surgeon has looked at the trees in the area. W1 Predominantly broadleaved woodland with a mixture of species including Oak, Beech, Cherry, Silver Birch and Ash Spec: S15 Fell tree to ground level. Reason: R2 To ensure future compatibility with site, surroundings and usage Reason: R4 To address potential hazard Reason: R6 Poor health, structural condition of form (delete as appropriate)
