Planning application

Longside, 74 Ladder Hill, Wheatley, OX33 1HY

Decided South Oxfordshire P21/S3863/TPO Works to TPO

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

G2- x3 Cypress (mis identified as Western Red Cedar on the original application) An application was made in 2016 to fell the three trees in this group and permission was granted. This application is being made as the original permission has subsequently expired. It is proposed that the x3 trees in this group are felled and replaced as per the original application. One of the trees in this group has had continual tear outs, another a thinning canopy with the remaining multi-stemmed tree in relative good shape by comparison but would be exposed to buffering once the adjacent companion trees are removed. The trees are over mature. The benefit of removing the trees and replacing with Cherry trees to mirror the existing impressive Japanese specimen already present on site would create a continuation of the tree-scape and further reinforce the planting of the era.

    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.
