Cleeve Firs, Cleeve Road, Goring on Thames, Oxon, RG8 9BJ

Decided South Oxfordshire P17/S4516/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

1 x Leyland Cypress 1 x Yew T1 - Leyland Cypress. This tree is approximately 40 feet tall and causes excessive shading of the greenhouse and lawn area. It completely dominates the upper area of the garden. Description of works: tree to be removed and replaced by an apple tree (an approx 6 ft eating apple). T2 - Yew. This tree has grown to overwhelm the lower part of the garden causing a large barren area. It also heavily shades the greenhouse. The tree is about 9 metres tall and is about 7 metres in diameter (ie. horizontal spread). Description of works: reduce the volume of the crown of the tree to half its current spread and height keeping a good shaped crown ball which will rapidly produce new growth. Remarks:

    Tree 1. Laurel tree. We want to remove this tree. The tree is out of character with the area and the garden and it threatens the dividing wall between us and our neighbour. Tree 2 Yew tree. We want to reduce the size of this tree from 6 metre canopy diameter to 3 metre canopy diameter. This tree overly dominates the garden and the greenhouse and the veg plot, making the whole area very dark. Treework 3 Sketch. This shows the layout of the garden (between the Ridgeway Footpath and the River Thames). Tree 1 and Tree 2 are clearly marked.

  • 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.
