Land at The Dell, Woodcote
T15 - Wild Cherry - hazard potential, fell. T16 - Oak - Remove deadwood and low lateral over footpath by 1.5m. Formative prune to give more balanced form. T17 - Ash - fell due to quantity of defects and allow some southern light to T16. T18 - Ash - Reduce north easterly stem by 2-3m in anticipation of the removal of T17 to improve form. Reduce end weight of lateral with fruitification. T19 - Oak - remove or stabilize major deadwood. T20 - Cherry - Consider removal to reduce moisture uptake in shrinkable soil. Tree close to "uplift" damagein wall which is potentially an indication of shrinkable soil influence on property. T21 - Ash - Remove dead stubs and thin canopy by 10%. T22 - Oak - Fell to meet duty of care safety requirements. T23 - Oak - no works.

Thorpe Farm House Thorpe Street Aston Upthorpe Didcot OX11 9EQ
T1 - Copper Beech - Reduce branches by approximately 2 metres focusing mainly on lateral branches rather than the top. Lift canopy to provide statutory clearance over the road and clear from service cables. T2 - Tulip Tree - Reduce by approximately 3 metres to restore balance within the crown due to previous limb failure leaving the tree unbalanced. T3 - Horse Chestnut - Reduce by approximately 3 to 4 metres, leaving a natural flowing crown outline and remove major deadwood. T4 - To fell and remove 1 x Yew tree and install eco plugs to prevent re-growth.

P26/S4354/TPO Granted
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.
