    Received 25 Nov 2024
  18. Decision MadeP23/S0758/TCA

    T1 Apple in rear garden. Tree has been heavily managed historically and has a marked lean to the south. There is significant bark death with saprophytic fungus growing on the tension side to the north and cavities in the main stem. Evidence of co-dominant stem having been removed relatively recently. It looks like this may as well have been dead at the time of removal. Our recommendations would be to remove the bulk of recent regeneration growth and also lightly restructure the canopy by 1-1.5m back to suitable growth points to mitigate the loading on the tree while still maintaining a reasonable sustainable canopy. The overall finish height of the tree will be reduced from approximately 7m to 5.5-6m and the spread reduced from 4.5m to 3m.

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for South Oxfordshire 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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
