  T1 - Birch T2 - Apple T3 - Lilac T4 - Sorbus The proposal is to remove 4 trees, with trunk diameters over 75mm, from the private garden of a town house in Thame. The Birch (T1) is to be replaced with a 2.5/3m high Amelanchier Lamarch, as it currently overshadows the garden too much. The Apple tree (T2) is to also be replaced with a 2.5/3m high Amelanchier. The Lilac (T3) is to be replaced with a row of 3 x Pleachey Hornbeam to allow for more screening and acoustic buffering from the adjacent pub car park. The overall design proposal is to plant: 3 x Amelanchier, 6 x Pleached Hornbeam and 5 x Malus "evereste". These trees will almost instantly replace any height in vegetation that is lost, as well as retaining privacy on both boundaries of the garden, in a more compact, orderly fashion, in scale with the garden.

  T1 Goat Willow - Fell to ground level. Reason for Works: The tree is located within the rear pub garden and is considered unsuitable for this setting. It produces a significant number of catkins, which fall to the ground, creating a slippery surface when wet and resulting in a considerable amount of debris on a regular basis. In addition, goat willow is known to attract wasps during the summer months, which unfortunately coincides with the garden's peak period of use. For these reasons, removal of the tree is considered the most appropriate management option.
