  • P15/S4777/TPO Granted

    Beechlands, 35 Rotherfield Road, HENLEY-ON-THAMES, Oxon

    T1 - Black Pine - fell. G2 - Cedar - fell. I would like consent to fell a Black Pine tree. The tree is a mature species which is in decline, most noticeably in the past two years. The tree stands around 22 metres tall. The tree is showing a poor vigour as opposed to other years. The root system has affecteda pier which has electric gates attached to causing structural damage, this has now been rebuilt. Deadwood is present with a couple of minor cavities and snags. A large stress fracture wa reported (see Photos) overhanging the driveway. The tree is considered to have a lower amenity value due to a mature Copper Beech tree located around 7 metres away which has a higher future life expectancy. The Black Pine has reached its full potential, has a less dense canopy than of other specimens. It has a high risk target zone, and if fails will cause significant damage. My client would like to replant a Abies Pinsapo "Glauca" tree with a girth of 8-10 cm. G2 The group comprising of 5 Cedar, 1 Walnut, 3 Birch Spec: S15 Fell tree to ground level.

T3 - Horse Chestnut - Reduce by approximately 3 to 4 metres, leaving a natural flowing crown outline and remove major deadwood.

    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.
