    Corner House, Allins Lane, East Hendred, Wantage, OX12 8JR

    Received 4 Nov 2021
  3. Decision MadeP22/V1320/TCA

    I am writing to ask permission for the removal of a pear tree, and for the thinning of an apple tree. The pear tree is being suffocated by ivy which has taken hold of the entire tree. The top of the tree is close to the electricity cable that supplies the house with power. We are concerned that unless the tree is removed, it could damage the power cable. Also the invasion of ivy means the tree is probably not viable in the long term The apple tree is very thick, and is overhanging the roof of part of the house, and encroaching on the road. Agricultural equipment needs to get down the road to the farm and the tree makes this difficult. Branches are breaking off each time these vehicles go through, which risks damaging the tree. We would like to have the tree thinned by 20% to remove the risk to the house, and to prevent it being damaged by vehicles on the road.

    Giant Redwood: TPO T16 - Reduce the limb on the car park side back by 2m-3m to reduce the pressure on the limb and reduce the likelihood of failure. Remove major deadwood throughout the crown.(P24/V2576/TPO) 2 x Ginkgo: TPO T49 - (T3 in report) Reduce crown back to near previous points, removing 4-5m from the height and removing 2-3m from the lateral spread. Remove the 2ton brace cutting into the central stem. (P24/V2576/TPO) T2 - Ginkgo - (CA) - Reduce crown back to near previous points, removing 4-5m from the height and removing 2-3m from the lateral spread. Sycamore 1763: Opposite the Giant Redwood: (CA) This tree has squirrel damage throughout and evidence of bacterial wet wood and deadwood throughout the tree. As the tree is of little significance and of poor form I would suggest removing the tree. This will mitigate the risk to the footpath and reduce the nuisance on the streetlight. I would also recommend the removal of the two self-set sycamore saplings behind the tree at the same time. Fell and treat the stumps.
