    T1 - Sycamore Crown reduce to previous pruning points to maintain suitable size. G1 - Woodland Thin out & crown reduction of various specimens within the woodland including laurels, hazels, spruce & lawson cypress to encourage more light & moisture to the woodland floor thereby increasing the area's aesthetical value & biodiversity. I intend to thin out the area as a woodland by removing some of the laurels and hazels to ground level by roughly 25%. Some of them will be better crown reduced but it's hard to determine exactly which & how much by until we start cutting as it's such dense canopy in the area.

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
