  14. Decision MadeP25/S2090/TPO

    T1 Lime - Remove the lowest limb extending toward the north, cutting it back to the primary scaffold limb. G2 Western Red Cedar X2 - Crown lift the tree to 2 metres by removing the lower limbs that overhang the lawn. T3 Yew - Selectively tip reduce the lower limb by removing up to 0.75 metres from the branch tips to improve light dispersal from the streetlamp. T4 London Plane - Reduce the lateral spread of the crown extending toward the property by up to 1 metre, working approximately back to previous pruning points. T5 Holly - Fell to ground level. G6 Leyland Cypress - Reduce the lateral spread of the trees overhanging the car park by up to 2 metres. G7 Sycamores - Reduce the lateral spread of the trees overhanging the driveway by up to 1 metre, up to a height of approximately 4.5 metres above ground level. G8 Oak and Lime - Reduce the lateral spread of the trees overhanging the driveway by up to 1 metre, up to a height of approximately 4.5 metres above ground level. G9 Hornbeam X8 - Crown lift the tree by pruning branch tips to provide 2 metres of clearance above the lawn. Additionally, reduce the lateral spread of the end tree adjacent to house number 26 by approximately 0.5 metres to prevent overhang onto the footpath. T10 Alder (Dead) - Fell to ground level. T11 Norway Maple - Crown Reduction - Reduce the height and lateral spread of the tree by up to 1.5 metres, ensuring the tree retains a natural, well-balanced shape. Additionally, install two 2-ton Cobra bracing systems to provide structural support. T12 Norway Maple - Crown Reduction - Reduce the height and lateral spread of the tree by up to 1.5 metres, ensuring the tree retains a natural, well-balanced shape. Reasons for Works: T1, G2, T3, T4, G7, and G8 - These works form part of routine maintenance to ensure adequate clearance around buildings, footpaths, and roads. T5 - This tree is in a state of terminal decline. G6 - This group of trees currently overhangs the parking area, depositing significant debris onto vehicles. The proposed reduction will alleviate this issue and improve the usability of the parking spaces. G9 - The trees within this group are now well established and are becoming overly dominant within the space. A crown lift will facilitate easier lawn maintenance, while reduction will preserve necessary clearance from the path and adjacent property. T11 - The tree has a major branch junction at approximately 2.5 metres, with multiple stems originating from this congested area. Several tight unions are present and require intervention to manage structural integrity and reduce future risk. T12 - This tree has developed an expansive crown that significantly overhangs several small back gardens. The proposed works aim to improve light levels and space for residents, without impacting the tree's visual amenity from public vantage points.

    The Renaissance, Thame, OX9 2FB

    Received 2 Jul 2025
  15. Decision MadeP23/S3671/TCA

    Removal of inappropriately large, non-native spruce (pine) tree in SW corner of cottage garden, including removal of trunk. The tree blocks all sun from a south facing garden, resulting in poor plant growth and moss,rather than grass. Concern re: the size of the root system in relation to a listed cottage with no foundations. I do not know when the tree was planted, but it is now much too tall/ large for a small garden. I have previously had the tree "thinned"( with consent), but regrowth occurs within one season. Planting of a more appropriately sized replacement tree e.g crab apple or acer, as and when advised by arborist. There is no TPO on this tree. Has been discussed with neighbours in 'Greenville", who support the application. Arborist : Gary Downes, Oxford Tree Company.

    31 The Green South, Warborough, OX10 7DR

    Received 23 May 2024
  20. Decision MadeP26/S0317/TCA

    T1 Silver Maple - Fell to ground level. T2 Poplar - Fell to ground level. T3 Sycamore - Fell to ground level. T4 Silver Maple - Fell to ground level. T5 Cherry - Fell to ground level. T6 Silver Maple - Fell to ground level. T7 Field Maple - Selective crown reduction - Reduce the one large, over-extended limb by up to 3.5 metres. Reduce the remaining growth extending over the fences by up to 1.5 metres, and remove all deadwood from the crown. Reasons for Works: T1 & T6: Both trees have decay pockets at the base with multiple entry points. There is evidence that these have coalesced, compromising the structural integrity of the trees and rendering them unsuitable for retention. T2: There is evidence of suspected Sesia apiformis, consistent with the numerous exit holes around the base of the tree. In addition, there appears to be browsing damage around the majority of the basal area. As a result, decay has developed at the base of the tree, making it unsuitable for retention. T3: The tree is in a terminal state of decline, having already shed approximately half of its upper crown. There are a number of unidentified fungal brackets present within the upper canopy; however, due to their location they cannot be clearly identified. Given the tree's condition and the presence of a regularly used garden path beneath, the tree is no longer suitable for retention. T5: Historic basal failure has led to the onset of decay, and retention of the tree is no longer practical. T7: The tree has historic limb failure with a large decay pocket extending down the stem. The proposed works are to reduce end weight and minimise the risk of further failure and potential damage to the horse stable below.
