Planning application

Woodland adjoining 5 Carling Road, Sonning Common, Reading, RG4 9TG

Decided South Oxfordshire P21/S4119/TPO Works to TPO

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Following a visit from our tree surgeon (The Hedge Barbers Ltd) to quote for a hedge cutting it was brought to our attention that the Cherry tree within the TPO is dying. It was recommended to be removed (felled) as it will become brittle and difficult to climb in order to do safely. It is also leaning towards the property that has been built in the land adjoining 54 Woodlands Road and so concerned it might fall onto this property.

    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.
