Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
Yew tree to north east side of church Removal of low hanging branches to a height approximately 2m above ground level. (The branches hang down in a similar manner to a weeping willow, s this is not removing them at the trunk, just trimming to a height above the ground. This will allow access to a memorial bench which is around the trunk, and to graves which are now under the canopy. Remarks:

St Margarets Church, Mapledurham Village, Reading, RG4 7TP
T1 - Maple tree Fell the single maple tree (acer platanoides - Norway Maple "Crimson King") to north west of St Margarets Church. Firstly, the tree was originally planted in the churchyard without permission (a diocesan faculty). The tree has now grown to a size where the roots are damaging the adjacent listed wall (a large hole has just had to be filled). Lastly we wish to restore the historical view of the church from the road and watermill direction which can be seen at http://photos.francisfrith.com/frith/mapledurham-st-margaret-s-church-1910_62214_large.jpg.

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.
