  • P19/S3513/TCA Decided

    St Nicholas House, 90 High Street, Wallingford, Oxon, OX10 0BW

    5 x Chamaecyparis 1 x Eucalyptus 7 x mixed Conifers 1 x Magnolia Grandiflora 1. 5 Chamaecyparis planted excessively close together and clustered around a feature well containing a rose bed - proposed to fell them and not replace due to their close proximity to other trees and fruit trees. 2. 1 Eucalyptus to be felled and replaced with a suitable indigenous deciduous specimen tree. This tree is not native and is planted too close to other trees in the garden. 3. 7 mixed Conifers of no particular merit to be felled - they are planted too close to one another and are failing to thrive as a result. They are affecting neighbouring fruit trees and a large Acacia tree planted in the same area. It is proposed to replant with a suitable number of native deciduous specimen trees appropriate to the space and site. 4. 2m crown reduction of Magnolia Grandiflora in the front garden. It has grown to a large size as can be seen from the attached photogaph. The neighbourabutting the tree has expressed concern about its size and it is beginning to encroach over the road and is brushed by buses driving past. I have taken advice from David Cottrell tree surgeon who has visited the site, inspected the trees and whose advice forms the basis of this application. Remarks:
