Planning application

P14/V2995/TCA

Highlands, London Road, Blewbury, Didcot, OX11 9NX

Decided Vale of White Horse Works to trees in CA

Proposal

T1 - Horse Chestnut Laurel hedge We have a huge horse chestnut a few metres from corner of our house which puts the house end of the house in shade from lunchtime, making it dark, cold and repressive. Also this tree has caused subsidence to our house. Want to cut it back so it does not put house in shade. Also want to take Laurel Hedge in front of house down by 1/2. It's 20 ft and tall and blocks out all light and views from even upstairs windows of house. Remarks:

As published by the council, reference P14/V2995/TCA

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
