    T1 x Pinus nigra- Remove to ground level and replant with 12ft heavy standard Betula Pendula. Tree has grown as part of a group of 5 Pines and has subsequently become suppressed with heavy phototrophic growth, leaning towards the road and overhead services. Remaining group of trees should be largely unaffected by the T1's removal and as a group still provide high amenity value. As a condition of T1's removal it is recommended to replace with a Silver Birch and provide further diversity to the villages overall canopy cover

What these statistics cover

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Cherwell District Council, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.

The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
