  15. Decision MadeP24/S2382/TCA

    1. Crown lift of T1 Copper Beech (with branch removal) Reasons for tree work. T1 is an early-mature Category A Copper Beech located on the southern boundary. The tree has a very low canopy which extends over Thames Road and there is insufficient highways clearance. Requested tree work: Request crown lift to statutory highways clearance of 5.5m over road, removing one identified limb (see Fig 1) back to source. We request a crown lift, as a reduction will leave the limb suppressed of light and potentially likely to dieback. Request reducing the lateral spread of over-extended limbs (over Thames Road) by a maximum of 2m to suitable growth points, tapering into height. 2. Crown lift of T2 Copper Beech (with branch removal) Reasons for tree work. T2 is an early mature Category B Copper Beech situated adjacent to the entrance gates and main driveway. The tree has a low canopy which extends over the driveway and there is insufficient clearance for construction vehicles. Requested tree work: Request a crown lift of 2m, removing one identified limb (see Fig 2) back to source. We request a crown lift, as a reduction will leave it suppressed of light and potentially likely to dieback. Reduce lateral spread of over extended limbs (over driveway) by a maximum of 2m to suitable growth points, tapering into height. 3. Removal of T3 Purple Plum T3 is a semi mature Category C Purple Plum situated on the southern boundary and visible from Thames Road. The tree has insufficient light levels and is outcompeted by other nearby trees. Request removal and replanting.

  19. Decision MadeP26/S0185/TCA

    Rear garden (T2) Holm oak - this is a significant landscape feature, and although there is some decay near the base of the stem (next to the wall), the tree could be retained and the following crown reduction pruning undertaken. This would help to lessen the crown weight as well as loading on crown forks and tree base. Suggested works - Crown reduce by approx. 2-2.5m. To avoid altering the balance of the tree as a whole, the crowns of the tree should be reduced in proportion to their original shape. (T1) Gleditsia - Reduce height by approx. 1.5m and balance remaining crown by reducing lateral crown to the west by 1.5-2m. (T3) Box elder - Reduce height by approx. 1.5m and balance remaining crown by reducing lateral crown growing towards the house by approx. 2m. Remove first lateral branch growing towards the wall back to the main stem. Front garden Yew (located in neighbouring garden to the north) - reduce back crown over driveway (6 Marlow Road) by 1-1.5m, crown lift (over driveway) any remaining branches to provide a clearance of 4m. Birch - remove tree (and plant replacement) Whitebeam (located in neighbouring garden to the north) - reduce back crown over driveway (6 Marlow Road) by 1.5m, crown lift (over driveway) any remaining branches to provide a clearance of 4m. Reduce crown back from public highway by approx. 1.5m, cut back from signage and lift crown over footpath to create 3m clearance.
