  14. Decision MadeP24/S3625/TCA

    To identify the trees please refer to the enclosed churchyard plan, with its accompanying sheet and photographs. The Holly trees in our churchyard have become enormous and/or unsightly and we would like to reduce their volume and height as detailed in the enclosed estimate from Penn Tree Services Ltd and remove the dying Holly (Tree 7) and the Holly (Tree 10) next to the Judas tree. (Reduce their volume by 50%, lower the total height by 6ft (if feasible for the trees). We also wish to remove the two Sycamores (Trees 9 and 11) which are affecting the boundary wall. We do not wish to replace the trees that are removed as that (south) side of the churchyard is already too shady. We also wish to cut back the two Yews by the Lychgate, as described in the estimate. (raise canopy over entrance, prune back from roadside, and clear from wires).

    See TPO map attached with annotations, as well as a copy of the Application For Tree Work Report prepared by an arborist, which together identify the trees in question. The report provides a full and clear specification of the works I wish to carry out. T1 - English Oak (TPO G1) - removal.T1 is an early mature Category C English Oak located 10m from the rear of our house. (See Tree Location Plan). This oak lies at the edge of the woodland group and receives reduced light levels. The tree is over 18m tall but is excessively slender form and has an asymmetrical canopy extending towards the house. Its stem also leans heavily, again to the south, over our garden and towards our property. The tree appears in decline and has notably produced "adventitious" for the last few years, which is a stress response. (See Fig 1, 2 & 3) We are greatly concerned about the long term viability of this oak and request permission to remove it. T2 - Common Ash - removal. T2 is an early-mature Category U Common Ash located12m from the rear of our house (See Tree Location Plan). The tree receives reduced light levels and leans towards the property. The tree also suffers from Ash Dieback and is in rapid decline, and we have noted large amounts of deadwood and debris falling into our garden from the tree, particularly during high winds. We are concerned about the safely of this ash and request permission to remove it. (See Fig 4). T3 - English Oak (TPO G1) - crown reduction. T3 is an early mature Category B English Oak located 16m from the rear of our house. (See Tree Location Plan). This oak lies at the edge of the woodland group and receives reduced light levels. The tree has excessively slender form and an asymmetrical canopy which extends towards the house. (See Fig 4). We seek permission to carry out a crown reduction reducing the southern laterals by up to 2m, to suitable secondary growth points.

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.
