  11. Decision MadeP25/S0971/TCA

    The removal of a Norwegian Spruce to replace with a native tree such as oak. or ornamental tree such as a magnolia or cherry. We believe this will enhance the site and provide a better habitat for wildlife. There are many coniferous native yew trees on the site and therefore we are seeking to introduce a native deciduous tree on the site of this large Norwegian spruce. As you can see from attached photographs, in the 1920s Castle Priory's bank down to the bottom lawn had shrubs rather than trees. We believe this Norwegian spruce was planted as a shrub and has been allowed to grow into a large tree which is not contributing to wildlife or the wider environment.

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
