  8 Lycroft Close Goring Reading RG8 0AT

  TPO 04S42/G1 Remove major deadwood and crown-lift Hornbeam overhanging garden shed of 14 Milldown Road, to a height of 3-4 metres agl as required, by removal of secondary growth only. Fell runt Lime. This tree has been historically suppressed by two trees. These were a Corsican Pine and Beech, both removed, with consent, well over a decade ago. (They were to the south of the Lime, hence the suppression.) Matt Gulliford was aware that this tree was weak and suggested giving it the benefit of doubt, but if it did not realise its potential, then recommended felling. Unfortunately the leaders have never recovered and indeed are dead. As an individual tree, this Lime has marginal amenity value and it would appear, never will. The owners would like to remove it and replant with another Hornbeam to complement the Yew and Hornbeam already planted, to mitigate its loss and that of the two previously removed trees.

• 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.
