Abbey Church St Peter St Paul, Dorchester on Thames, Wallingford, Oxon, OX10 7HH
2 x trees x 2 trees to rear corner of Abbey both trees are suppressed from the recently removed deceased tree. They are also growing directly over a service run and quite close to the building, there is some concern that their root system may be in the drainage. They don't serve any other purpose other than to generate a bit of concern about the potential for failure on to the building. Fell trees to ground level and grind resultant stumps to 150-200mm.

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.
