Planning application

Chiltern House, Stoke Row Road, Stoke Row, Henley on Thames, RG9 5PA

Withdrawn South Oxfordshire P17/S4848/TCA Works to trees in CA

Works: Trees

Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.

Proposal

T7 - Horse Chestnut T8 - Norway Spruce G5 - Norway Spruce T13 & G4A - Norway Spruce G4B - Sycamore T7 - Horse Chestnut - fell. Tree has low vigour - small leaves and early leaf cast. History of limb loss - most recent remains in situ. This has left the primary limb on south side with a considerable split and weakened, jeopardising the rest of this side of the tree and further storm damage likely. A major cavity in the trunk further limits the tree's structural integrity. I do not regard the tree worthy of a TPO and early felling would allow hedge along frontage to develop and new trees to be established. T8 - Norway Spruce - fell. Permission has been given to fell Leyland Cypress (G1) to immediate west of this tree as part of a planning permission. The majority of the west section of the canopy is suppressed and completely dead. A Norway Spruce in the conservation area of a village in the heart of the Chilterns has very questionable amenity value and one with such poor form has even less visual amenity. Tree is not worthy of a TPO and should be felled to allow planting of more approriate species. G5 - Norway Spruce - fell. Some trees near the road are dead or dying with others with low vigour. Spruce are not native and are out of keeping and with minimal intrinsic amenity value to a Chiltern village conservation area. T13 & G4A - Norway Spruce & G4B - Sycamore - same explanation as above re. Norway Spruce. G4B is part of hedge with was allowed to grow at an angle over footpath at head height, restricting access.

  • 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.
