  1. Decision MadeP26/S1232/TCA

    T1 and T2 Oak tree - Remove to ground level. T3 Hazel coppice - Coppice to ground level. T4 Prunus - no works. T5 Birch tree - remove to ground level. T6 Holly - Remove to ground level. T7 Acer - No works. T8 Apple - No works. T9 Birch - Remove to ground level. The previous owner of the property planted a large number of trees in a relatively small garden. The current owner and applicant wishes to remove the Oak trees as they have been planted in very close proximity to the boundary and they have poor form due to the small spacing between the trees. They would like to remove the Holly and 2 of the Birch to give more space to the neighbouring trees and provide a view up the garden of the Acer.

    2 x large mature Beech trees T4/T5 on the map, it seems that the carpark sides of these trees has been reduced a number of times before, this has left the limbs over hanging the neighbouring property very over extended and almost unbalancing the tree. I recommend that we reduce selective lateral limbs by approximately 2 metres to bring it back into shape by rebalancing the tree and hopefully preventing future snap outs into the neighbours property, pruning cuts will be made on sub branches only. A report was carried out on this site earlier on this year and this tree is already showing signs of stress, please see report attached.

What these statistics cover

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
