Planning application

4 St Marks Road, Henley on Thames, Oxon, RG9 1LJ

Decided South Oxfordshire P15/S4700/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

T1 - Apple tree T2 - Lilac tree T3 - Pear tree T4 - Conifer T5 - Cherry Laurel T1 - Apple tree The apple tree is largely hollow in its trunk and main branch. When given a light push it moves. The tree is situated 2 metres from the back of the conservatory and c.4 foot of the garden wall. The apples also attract a large number of wasps in the summer, very close to the house and main outdoor eating area. For safety and nuisance reasons, the intention is to remove it. T2 - Lilac tree The lilac tree is also largely hollow (see Photo of inside of trunk) and not safe. It also butts against the c.100 year old wall. Our intention is to replace it with Cercis Canadensis (Forest Pansy) but situate the tree further away from the wall. T3 - Pear tree The pear tree is very old and has not been kept in the best shape. It also butts up against the wall. The intention would be to remove it. T4 - Conifer The conifer is the largest tee in the garden and is within one foot of the wall. It is a significant sized tree and the roots are lifting the paving stones on the surrounding patio. The intention is to remove it to protect the integrity of the wall, but replace the tree with Escallonica rubra to provide screening from the large outhouse next door. T5 - Cherry Laurel The intention is to replace the Cherry Laurel with Ligustrum Japonicum - a more decorative tree for the end of the garden. Remarks:

    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.
