    North Barn, Chinnor Road, Crowell, OX39 4RG

    Received 24 Jan 2023
  20. Decision MadeP21/S1440/TCA

    1 x large Prunus subhirtella - we would like to completely remove the tree and roots (as much as possible). The tree was planted too close to our perimeter wall. This is brick and is now showing a significant bow out towards the highway. The wall is cracked and has been monitored for movement. We believe the tree and wall may collapse. This would impact on the highway, neighbouring properties but most significantly we are opposite the primary school so there is a real danger to those passing by or parking next to the wall. We would replant the area with smaller shrubs that will not impact on the wall. The wall will be rebuilt in the same materials as present.

  21. Decision MadeP26/S1227/TCA

    T3 & T4 Weeping willow x2 Observations: These trees are asymmetrical and present visible structural damage. There are several overextending lateral limbs which contributes to the trees overall poor form. Selective maintenance required to encourage better growth and bring back into a suitable formation. Recommendations: Remove deadwood and twisted, fallen and damaged branches. Shorten any over extended lateral branches by up to 3m to reduce the risk of further failures.
