    FIVE DAY NOTICE T1 Common Ash: This tree has recently been exposed since the neighbouring mature Beech failed in the recent storm. This tree is in poor condition with an undeveloped crown with very sparse foliage / bud spacing. On closer examination the upper branch structure is heavily cankered with what I suspect is an Inonotus fruiting body present. Since the storm a secondary stem failed into Cleeve Road. The drawn form of this tree top weighted tree is not helping as it is open to the prevailing south westerly winds. Regrettably, two other trees failed the same area during the storm creating the clear area in thee photograph. We would like to remove this tree as soon as practicable as I do believe this tree is hazardous. - Remove as close to ground level as practicable.

    T3 Elm - Fell to ground level. T6 Corsican Pine - Fell to ground level. G8 Corsican Pine X2 - Fell to ground level. G9 Larch - Fell to ground level. T10 Ash - Fell to ground level. T11 Beech - Fell to ground level. T12 Sycamore - Fell to ground level. T13 Ash - Fell to ground level. T15 Beech - Fell to ground level. T16 Oak - Fell to ground level. Reasons for the works: T3 - The tree has sections of dieback within the crown consistent with Dutch Elm Disease. Removal is required, as the tree will continue to decline now it has contracted the disease. T6 - The tree is in a state of decline with poor crown vitality. In addition, there is a Heterobasidion annosum bracket at the base. Given these two factors, removal is required to prevent failure or further deterioration. G8 - Two of the three Pines are in a terminal state of decline. Removal is necessary to prevent further decline and potential failure. G9 - The tree is partially windblown and is currently hung up in another tree. T10 - The tree previously lost a subdominant limb, resulting in a large fracture in the main stem. The fracture has compromised the structural integrity, making the stem unsafe to support the remaining crown. T11 - The tree has a history of major limb failure. It also has Kretzschmaria deusta and Ganoderma australe at the base, and removal is required to prevent basal failure. T12 - There is an extensive decay pocket at the base which has spread throughout. Although the tree has produced some reaction growth, given the size of the crown this is not sufficient to prevent failure. T13 - The crown is displaying signs of decline consistent with Ash Dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus). In addition, there is Inonotus hispidus present on the limb extending toward the road. Due to the progressive nature of these issues and the treeâ¿¿s location, removal is required to mitigate risk of failure. T15 - The tree has a history of primary limb failure and is also affected by Kretzschmaria deusta. Removal is required to mitigate the risk of failure over the driveway. T16 - The tree is in a terminal state of decline. Removal is required to prevent failure, particularly given its proximity to the road.

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.
