  10. Decision MadeP24/S3174/TCA

    T1 - Ash - Fell to ground level and plant a replacement further away from the boundary fence. Crown is now showing signs of decline with significant tip dieback, thinning foliage and deadwood. On further inspection two large decay pockets were discovered with the probe sinking 80cm into them, under the rootplate. Given its close proximity to the adjacent property, it is recommended that this tree is removed. T2 - Hornbeam and T3 - Field Maple - Remove and plant replacements further away from the boundary. These are two small stems which appear to be remnants of a hedgerow. Their crowns are asymmetric and biased to the west over the boundary fence into the adjacent property. They are too close together to be of any merit as they mature.

  19. Decision MadeP23/S1128/TCA

    The plan (sundial tree.jpeg) illustrates the location of the trees in Sundial Cottage's front garden. The trees are within the boundary of my property. They appear to have originally been planted as part of a hedge. The property was left vacant for a number of years by the previous owners, which has allowed these trees to become oversized for the setting. The main purpose of the proposed works is to reduce the risk to the power and telephone cables that intersect the trees (3 telephone and 2 power at various heights between 4m and 6 m above ground); also, to increase light into the living room of Sundial Cottage, and the kitchen of the neighbouring property, which currently sit in semi-permanent darkness and need lights switched-on even in the middle of the day. Tree one - Yew is sited about 6.5m from the house and is approximately 6m+ tall. Planned works - We have been advised by an arborist to remove this tree, by uprooting. This will be replaced by a deciduous tree species (such as hawthorn, maintained as a hedge), providing shelter and food for insects and birds. Tree two - Holly Tree planted next to Yew tree (about 8m from house) and at least 8m+ tall. Planned works - To lift the crown, by removing the branches upto 6m in order to clear the power and telephone cables.

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.
