Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
Various The extent of the trees in question are the line of trees that run centrally down the main area of grass, the trees from behind the cricket ets, down through beyond the play park and general park area, and those inside the enclosed park area alongside the aerial runway. 1. Primarily to cut back branches on 2 Hazel alongside the aerial runway and the Birch to ensure a minimum of 3.5-4m clearance. And also to raise the canopy of the Birch to approximately 4m. 2. To raise the canopies of all trees between 4 and 8m in height to approximately 1.5-1.8m to improve sight lines and access for mowing and also improve the form of the trees. 2. To formatively prune smaller trees, removing selective branches and shaping the canopies to promote good form also remove the self-set Ash from the corner of the play area, adjacent to the basketball hoop and treat to inhibit regeneration. 3. All the mature trees around and in the play areas, and along the central spine of the grassed area. To ensure canopy height of at least 4m and remove sections of major deadwood greater than 45mm in diameter the canopy raise would be secondary branch structure only, not primary limbs. Remarks:

Thorpe Farm House Thorpe Street Aston Upthorpe Didcot OX11 9EQ
T1 - Copper Beech - Reduce branches by approximately 2 metres focusing mainly on lateral branches rather than the top. Lift canopy to provide statutory clearance over the road and clear from service cables. T2 - Tulip Tree - Reduce by approximately 3 metres to restore balance within the crown due to previous limb failure leaving the tree unbalanced. T3 - Horse Chestnut - Reduce by approximately 3 to 4 metres, leaving a natural flowing crown outline and remove major deadwood. T4 - To fell and remove 1 x Yew tree and install eco plugs to prevent re-growth.

T1 Copper Beech. Low canopy over road and footpath. To raise canopy to statutory clearances, (5.2m over road, 2.5m over footpath). To remove deadwood greater than 60mm over road and footpath, for safety purposes, minimising any chance for larger falling deadwood in windy conditions.

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.
