Planning application

5 River Terrace, HENLEY-ON-THAMES, Oxon, RG9 1BG

Refused South Oxfordshire P15/S4801/TPO Works to TPO

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

T1 - Deodar Cedar. Fell. Tree planted approx 30 years ago as an ornamental. The tree has now exceeded its space (approx 50 ft tall) and is due to grow considerably larger. The row of buildings to the rear of the tree are listed. It is growing almost on the fence line between number 4 and 5 River Terrace and there is obvious visual evidence of slabs being lifted in number 5. A dwarf variety of a similar species would be planted nearby to negate the loss.

As published by the council, reference P15/S4801/TPO
