    None of the trees in the TPO are identified separately or numbered. I would like to cut a branch that is low and dangerously overhanging my neighbour's car park, pruning the last 8-10 feet of the branch in question. There is a serious risk of injury and damage, so this is a matter of urgency. The tree in question is a common ash and it is the first tree south of the yard behind the Oxfam shop, just beyond the boundary wall.

  18. Decision MadeP19/S3656/TCA

    4 x Cherry Trees 6 x Leylandii 1 x unknown tree stump I am applying to remove 4 diseased cherry trees adjacent to the footpath numbered T1-T4 on the plan and an unknown tree X1 at the boundary that has been choked by ivy. All of these trees are in a very poor condition and present a hazard to users of the churchyard. Photographs of each tree is included. I am also applying to remove 6 leylandii trees L1-6 at the end of the churchyard. These trees are inappropriate in their setting and will in due course compete with fine mature trees on the bondary. Clearing these trees will enable the ground to be levelled improving the overall appearance of this part of the churchyard and increasing the availability of future burial space. Photographs of the trees and the setting is included. Our plan would be to plant appropriate native trees to replace those removed but not necessarily in the same location - hornbeam or similar, 10 trees to suit the setting, 3 year old whips. Remarks:

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 Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded.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.
