Planning application
Green Cottage Broad Street Uffington Faringdon SN7 7RA
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 Robinia (Height 8 metres, crown spread 3 metres). This tree is in terminal decline due to age, and is in fairly poor condition. The crown of the tree holds a significant amount of dead and decaying wood, as is typical of mature trees of this species. if the tree were to break then it is likely that any debris would fall into the adjacent two roads or the parking area. T2. Mature ash tree. Height 8 metres, crown spread 3 metres. This tree is tall and lanky, and regularly drops debris onto the adjacent footpath and parking area. The specification for works is approximately the same for T1 and T2, and is aimed at maintaining the trees in the safest possible condition. Reduce height of both trees by around 3 metres, and prune remainder to give better shape. Removing around 3 metres of top growth and around 30 cm of side growth, leaving pruning cuts of 50 mm maximum.

The Walnuts Broad Street Uffington Faringdon SN7 7RA
T1. Mature sycamore tree growing in the hedgerow next to the road. Height 7 metres, crown spread 3 metres. This tree was pollarded several years ago, leading to regrowth which has now doubled the height of the tree since it was pollarded. There is decay present at the point where the regrowth meets the top of the trunk, with several cavities which render the tree unsafe and likely to break and fall into the road. Proposed work is to re-pollard the tree back to the original pollard cuts, leaving pruning cuts of 10 cm diameter, removing branches of up to 3 metres in length. T2. Semi mature sycamore tree. Height 7 metres, crown spread 4 metres. This self-seeded tree in the hedgerow has now grown to a size where it is very close to the nearby power line, and poses a risk to the road as it has recently dropped branches. Proposed work is to pollard the tree at a height of 3 metres to match the hedgerow, and allow it to become part of the hedge. This will remove around 4 metres of top growth, leaving a pruning cut of around 20 cm. T3. A small group of 3 self-seeded young sycamore saplings growing out of the hedge towards the road. Height 3 to 4 metres. Proposed work is to fell all 3 to ground level, before they start to impede the sightlines on the adjacent road.
