Planning application

Mill Farm, Mill Street, Stanton St John, OX33 1HN

Decided South Oxfordshire P21/S4669/TCA Works to trees in CA

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T1 - Cypress. Remove. This tree shows signs of Honey Fungus is not a good specimen and is out of character in this wooded part of the garden. T2 & 3 - Ash. Remove. These trees are large saplings and do not have space to develop well in this wooded part of the garden G4 - Crack Willow. Selectively reduce the radial crown spread over the orchrard and garden area by 2-3 meters so as to lessen the likelihood of storm damage and also to allow more space and light to the various smaller trees in the garden area below and adjacent to these large Willows. T5. Willow. Pollard to a height of around 2 meters. This tree is sickly with very sparse foliage. Pollarding may produce new growth from the bole or the tree may simply die. Either way it is better pollarded to a low height and can at least provide wildlife value. T6 & 7 - Ash. Remove both trees to allow more space and light to the boundary hedgerow so that it can grow more strongly and to avoid the likely consequences of Ash die-back in relation to road safety. T8 - Sycamore. Remove lower growth to raise crown to around 5 meters over the ground and road.

    T1 - Ash tree. This tree is not majorly unstable so would not warrant urgent attention. It does have ash dieback, and we have quoted to remove it. T2 - Unstable Ash tree at the base, it also shows early signs of ash die back. We are asking permission to fell to ground level. G1 - Two Cracked Willows that back on to a field owned by the village and I believe is public land. We are asking to re-pollard both at 10ft.

    G1 - 6 x Plum G2 - 12 x Hawthorn Until about 20 years ago there were no trees here at all. The current owner then planted deciduous hedging plants about 20 years ago. The majority of these hedging plants, which had been maintained as a hedge by the owners, were then removed about 8 years later and replaced with evergreen plants. Whatever was left of the deciduous hedging was then left to bolt and so became the trees, the subject of this application. There are in total about six plum (wild red and yellow types) and twelve hawthorns although at this time of year it is difficult to identify this because the trees are bare, all look alike and they are of varying heights and very interwined. (total approx 18 trees). The work is to cut back the parts of these trees which overhang the boundary into Mill House property. The boundary line runs approximately east/west and so forms a northern boundary of Mill Farm and the southern boundary of Mill House. Remarks: Spec:

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.
