Planning application

Between Moreton Lane and Windmill Road, Thame

Withdrawn South Oxfordshire P17/S5053/TPO Works to TPO

Works: Trees

Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight.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

Proposal

T1 - Lime Remove epicormic growth up to 5m and all dead wood. Also remove the lowest diseased limb. T2 - Lime - Fell to about .5m above ground level in a safe and controlled maner. Retain the ivy clad mound at base of tree. Replace with Liquidamber 10-12 cm girth standard. T3 - Lime - remove all major deadwood and epicormic growth on main stem and thin crown by 15%. T1 is very much in decline. The lowest limb to be removed is almost dead and the work applied for is to improve the look of the tree in the short term. It is anticipated that this tree will need top to be removed within 5 years. T2 has now declined to the point where it provides little amenity value or benefit to the garden. T3 is reasonable healthy and vigorous. The work described is to enhance amenity value and improve the form of the tree.

    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.
