    Riverside House, Waterstock, Oxford, OX33 1JT

    T1 - Crack Willow T2 - Weeping Willow T3 - Sycamore T4 - Ash T5 - Sycamore T1 - Crack Willow - concern over perceived movement, leverage on the annually submerged bank and potentially the obstruction of the river during periods in the winter, the cost of removal from the river after failure during annual flooding/saturation would also be excessive. Fell to near ground level and burn all of the arisings on the island. T2 - Weeping Willow - significant stress rib formation. Reduce to create a pollard effect, removing approximately 4m to decrease leverage and the likelihood of failure into the river and ove the original manor wall. T3 - Sycamore - significant damage over the garden wall and throughout the crown. Crown clean, reducing as required branches which are damaged in excess of 30% of the circumference of the branch and removing those branches which are damaged in excess of 60% of their circumference. T4 - Ash - remove six primary branches and one large secondary branch to provide clearance over the adjacent cherry and garden. T5 - Sycamore - encroaching on the pool area over the garden wall. Crown reduce the section of the canopy which extends towards the garden wall by 2m and reshape, removing no more than 3m from any one branch. Remarks:

  • P26/S4354/TPO Granted

    Henley College Deanfield Avenue Henley-on-thames RG9 1UH

    Ash (T2 of TPO 09/2019) - Reduce back crown over single storey block D4 by a maximum of 4m at its widest point (work mainly relates to over extended limbs over roof). Reduce back low branches over the roof to create 3m clearance. Cutback branches from front of the adjacent building (D6) to create 2-3m clearance. To help balance the crown, reduce remaining crown by approx. 2m. To avoid altering the balance of the tree as a whole, the crown of the tree should be reduced in proportion to its original shape. All pruning cuts must be made at branch junctions, leaving sufficient live growth to maintain or enhance crown form.
