    Tree details; Walnut (Juglans regia) Height: approx 8m Lateral spread: approx 6m Location: Rear garden of 18 Henfield View Description of works: Removal of Walnut tree down to ground level. All timber and arisings to be removed. Works will be undertaken by qualified arborists in line with British Standard BS2998:2010 (Tree Work Recommendations). Health and safety environmental best practices will be followed throughout. Reason for works: Elderly resident has requested removal of the walnut tree as it has become too large for the garden space. The tree is increasingly dominant, casting heavy shade and presenting a long-term financial problem due to ongoing pruning, maintenance and management requirements. Removal will allow the garden to be safely managed without the burden of future tree care costs.

    2x large mature Lime trees. There are substantial sections of major deadwood, one of which has recently failed onto a vehicle and there is some deadwood over the garden and adjacent footpath. Our recommendations are to remove sections of major deadwood from both trees greater than 65mm in diameter. To also remove epicormic growth from base to crown break on both trees and removing ivy around the two bases to allow closer inspection to assess for decay dysfunction or pathogens. The tree to the south substantially overhangs and is close to the property. To reduce two low limbs back by approximately 2.5m and this won't alter the overall canopy spread pruning back to points of suitable secondary live growth. Also the low overextended limb over the road and drive. There is very heavy foliage on the end and extends beyond the line of canopy. To reduce this limb to 2-2.5m to bring back into the line of canopy. The canopy of both trees is asymmetric being shared canopy dynamic and the reduction works should bring the canopy spread down to between 14m and 15m.

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
