Decided Vale of White Horse P17/V3498/TCA Works to trees in CA

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

T1 - Horse Chestnut I would like to fell a Horse Chestnut tht we planted about 25 years ago as it is looking very sick with a number of dead branches at the top. It is quite close to the house and is crowding out a silver birch and walnut that are healthy. In the past I have had permission to pollard willows and coppice Hazels I presume this is on going. Three willows on the north side of the lake are quite large and I am considering cutting back the branche sover the lake to give it more height. Remarks:

    1 x Horse Chestnut Application for either radical surgery or, if advised, felling, of large horse chestnut located south of Downsview Cottage (see plan) in a Conservation Area. The tre appears to be diseased and is shedding branches and is dangerously close to Downsview Cottage. See photos of tree when in blossom and now, when leaves are already yellowing (3) and (4). This has occurred for several years now and there has been an increase in dead and broken branches. We would like to take action to make safe according to advice. Remarks:

    Coach Lane Churchyard Coach Lane Faringdon SN7 8AB

    The single dead Cherry tree is shown as "C" in a red circle on the Sketchmap provided. For reasons of safety before autumn storms, the crown now needs to be reduced by removal of the lateral branches to a residual limb length of c. 1 metre above main unions, creating a branched monolith (of about 4-5m height) . This is a wildlife-friendly alternative to complete removal. The trunk already has ivy growth, and the tree will continue to provide potential harbourage for wood-boring insects, other invertebrates, birds and smal mammals. Arborists have indicated that the standing dead tree should remain stable for several years as a monolith. Stability will be checked annually. The lopped branches will be cut into manageable pieces to make a habitat pile in a designated area of the churchyard. N.B. There is no Tree Preservation Order in force for this tree or any other tree in the chuchyard.
