P21/S2963/TCA Decided
The Ferry House, Ferry Lane, Goring, RG8 9DX
T1 Plane - Remove the lowest limb at 5.5m above ground level towards the house back to source. Remove the long lower limb at 6m above ground level overhanging the garage roof back to source. Evenly reduce the lateral spread by approximately 3m around the perimeter of the canopy. Pruning cuts should not exceed 100mm. Works equating to 10% of the tree's leaf area. All pruning cuts to be made at branch junctions, leaving sufficient live growth to maintain crown form. T2 and T3 Aspen - On both trees, remove the two lowest limbs back to source that directly overhang the boundary hedge, towpath and river bank (and hence moored boats). To address the potential hazard of unpredictable limb breakage. T5 - Willow. Remove the 7 lowest smallest limbs of approximately 100mm diameter back to source. Evenly reduce the spread of the long lateral branches by approximately 4m around the perimeter of the canopy where they are longer than 8m. All pruning cuts to be made at branch junctions, leaving sufficient live growth to maintain crown form. To address the potential hazard of unpredictable limb breakage TG1 x5 Willow - Reduce crown height of all five trees by upto 40% to effectively pollard them at approximately 10m height. All pruning cuts to be made at branch junctions, to maintain and enable a good crown form as they re-grow. Limbs have recently broken out of a number of these trees and this work therefore will address the potential hazard of unpredictable limb breakage.

Laurel Removal of overgrown Laurel shrub, now a tree. This tree stands close to our conservatory, causing narrow access to the back of our house. It dominates a small garden. We have pruned it several times (with permission) but it grows back very quickly and just gets bigger. We will happily replace it with a more appropriate tree. Remarks:

P26/S4011/TCA Decided
Ivy Cottage High Street Little Milton Oxford OX44 7PU
T2 Ash - Reduce the height and spread of the tree by up to 1.5 metres, approximately back to the previous pruning points. Reduce the growth extending towards the house and surrounding shrubs by up to 2 metres to provide additional clearance and address the existing crown imbalance. Additionally, crown lift over the garden to provide a minimum clearance of 3 metres above ground level. Ensure a natural, well-balanced crown is retained. Reasons for Works – The tree is located in close proximity to the property and has previously been managed in line with the proposed works. The objective is to maintain the tree at an appropriate size for its location while continuing the established management regime.

7 Vicarage Road Henley-on-thames RG9 1HF
There are two trees in the front garden Permission is requested to fell both trees. Tree 1 = Weeping Birch Tree Tree 2 = Maple Tree Weeping Birch (Tree 1) This has become too large for the site, the roots are lifting the paving around it, making it a trip hazard. Roots have also entered the nearby drains, causing problems. Permission is sought to fell the tree, to make safe access to the property and to make space on the driveway for off street parking. (There is a nearby primary school, and parking can be a challenge.) Maple (Tree 2) This tree has also become too big for its location, which is very close to the boundary of No. 5 and No. 7 Vicarage Rd, causing lifting of the paving around it. It is also very close to both houses. Permission is sought to fell this tree.
