P21/S4778/TCA Decided
The Old Row House, Cuxham, Watlington, Oxon, OX49 5NF
1. Goat Willow - reduce back to former reduction points and reshape. 2. Sycamore - cut back branches that are encroaching onto listed property next door. 3. Cherry - cut back branches that are encroaching onto listed property next door. Regarding the two trees that are encroaching onto our listed village hall, I only work in feet and inches I'm afraid and would estimate the thickness of the offending branches (of which there are six) are as follows: 3 are about 2-3 inches in diameter and 3 about 5 inches in diameter. The lane itself, between our fence and the side of the village hall, is 4 ft. wide. I cannot tell you how far the tree surgeon would cut them back because that is a professional decision. The trunk of both the cherry tree and sycamore tree are the height of our fence, i.e. 6 ft, before both split into side branches. It is off these side branches that the smaller branches encroach onto the village hall.

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.
