Planning application

Hill House, High Street, Kingston Blount, Chinnor, OX39 4SJ

Decided South Oxfordshire P15/S4467/TCA Works to trees in CA

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

Gp 1 - Lawson & Leyland Cypress T2 - Maple Gp 1 Lawson & Leyland Cypress. These trees make up a unified large hedge screen. They have been periodically reduced to a lesser height and spread. They are now quite outgrown and impose over the neighbours property and are out of scale/too large for their position. The trees are to be reduced in height by around 50% and the side growth clipped back to maintain them as a managed hedge or screen. T2 - Maple - this tree is clearly in poor health with deadwood and die back over the whole crown. It is to be removed. Remarks:

    T2 Ash - Reduce the height and spread of the tree by up to 1.5 metres, approximately back to the previous pruning points. Reduce the growth extending towards the house and surrounding shrubs by up to 2 metres to provide additional clearance and address the existing crown imbalance. Additionally, crown lift over the garden to provide a minimum clearance of 3 metres above ground level. Ensure a natural, well-balanced crown is retained. Reasons for Works – The tree is located in close proximity to the property and has previously been managed in line with the proposed works. The objective is to maintain the tree at an appropriate size for its location while continuing the established management regime.

    7 Vicarage Road Henley-on-thames RG9 1HF

    There are two trees in the front garden Permission is requested to fell both trees. Tree 1 = Weeping Birch Tree Tree 2 = Maple Tree Weeping Birch (Tree 1) This has become too large for the site, the roots are lifting the paving around it, making it a trip hazard. Roots have also entered the nearby drains, causing problems. Permission is sought to fell the tree, to make safe access to the property and to make space on the driveway for off street parking. (There is a nearby primary school, and parking can be a challenge.) Maple (Tree 2) This tree has also become too big for its location, which is very close to the boundary of No. 5 and No. 7 Vicarage Rd, causing lifting of the paving around it. It is also very close to both houses. Permission is sought to fell this tree.
