  1. Decision MadeP25/S0023/TCA

    T1 is a fallen willow branch in the North West of the water meadow. The plan is to clear the fallen branch before it takes root. The main tree will remain. T2 is a mature willow that has cracked at the base and is leaning against another willow. The plan is to fell the tree to remove the hazard of it falling on anyone working below it. The tree will regrow from the base. T3 is a young willow that is spreading onto the meadow. The plan is to reduce this back to the main trunk. The main tree will remain. T4 is a mature willow that has already been pollarded. The tree is over a permissive path around the perimeter of the Old Bridge Meadow. The plan is to re-pollard the tree and reduce it so that it regrows from the vertical trunk. The main tree will remain.

    Mill Meadows Riverside Park, Meadow Road, Henley on Thames, RG9 1BE

    Received 13 Feb 2025
  20. Decision MadeP25/S3341/TCA

    We propose felling the tree for the following reasons: a) It is 20 metres from our house and about 15 metres from our neighbour's garage, so we feel there are safety and insurance issues. b) It is also about 15 metres from an electricity pole. c) The ground around it has dried up quite dramatically this summer, and the tree has shed a huge quantity of needles, killing the grass and plants underneath. d) We have planted several trees in the garden, including a birch tree which is growing out of shape as it struggles for light. It seems unlikely that the previous owners who planted this tree knew how gigantic it would become. It has more than tripled in size during the 29 years we have lived here. We have tried reducing the tree, but it has quickly grown back and continued its upward trend. A tree surgeon recommends felling.
