Planning application
P14/V3045/TCA
Medlar Cottage, Faringdon Road, Shrivenham, Oxon, SN6 8AJ
Proposal
T1 - Large Norway Spruce Large Norway Spruce. Tree in later years not particularly good specimen, very close to house for such a large tree. Owner concerned by the amount of movement in storms. In our opinion, no particular aesthetic value as only the top third of the tree has expected appearance. As the lower section has few branches of value, reduction would leave it an unsightly relic of a tree. Therefore recommend removal of tree. Remarks:
As published by the council, reference P14/V3045/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.
