Woodland belt to rear of properties on Valley Road, Henley on Thames
Overview: 1 x Horse Chestnut within TPO group 09S85/W1 on council owned land. This tree leans over the rear gardens of the properties on Valley Road. It is important to note that this is a young tree in close proximity to the rear of the properties and may not have been present when the initial TPO was made. The crown is currently slightly asymmetrical as it looks for solar gain away from woodland group into the gardens of Valley Road. Specification: T1 - Horse Chestnut, provide qualified arboricural team to carry out removal of 3 x lowest laterals to southern aspect growing over property on 55/57 Valley Road. Reduce southern lateral growth by 1.5m gradually tapering in by approx 1/.5m leaving a balanced crown outline. Pruning shall be to secondary growth points sufficient to sustain canopy function. Picture below is a guideline only actual reduction maybe slightly less as dictated by available growth points. W1 Mixed species woodland Horse-chestnut, Sycamore, Beech, Ash, Oak Spec: S19 Please add the following at the end of all the aprroved works: All pruning cuts must be made at bra Reason: R1 Sound arboricultural management Reason: R2 To ensure future compatibility with site, surroundings and usage

Thorpe Farm House Thorpe Street Aston Upthorpe Didcot OX11 9EQ
T1 - Copper Beech - Reduce branches by approximately 2 metres focusing mainly on lateral branches rather than the top. Lift canopy to provide statutory clearance over the road and clear from service cables. T2 - Tulip Tree - Reduce by approximately 3 metres to restore balance within the crown due to previous limb failure leaving the tree unbalanced. T3 - Horse Chestnut - Reduce by approximately 3 to 4 metres, leaving a natural flowing crown outline and remove major deadwood. T4 - To fell and remove 1 x Yew tree and install eco plugs to prevent re-growth.

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.
