JACAMY, 2A BURNETTS GARDENS, HORTON HEATH, EASTLEIGH, SO50 7BY
1 No. Oak (T1) - Reduce crown by 2m. South side lateral limb reduced by 3m to balance tree and provide visual aesthetic and complete shape. Currently vast overhang. Current height 12m - Finished height 10m, Current spread approx. 10m - Finished spread approx. 8m.

T/26/101856 Granted
7 PENRHYN CLOSE, EASTLEIGH, SO50 4QF
1 No. Silver Birch (Tree 1) - Crown reduction of 3-4m and crown thinning by 10%. Tree drops deadwood twigs and small branches continually, larger branches could cause injury to people passing in the street or visiting the property. This would benefit the neighbour installing solar panels as the tree casts shadow and also continually clogs the guttering. Tree surgeon is concerned about a rot pocket above a limb that overhangs the driveway and footpath. This limb also impedes a street lamp. Thinning and reduction would reduce the load on the tree.

1 WESTERN ROAD, WEST END, SOUTHAMPTON, SO30 3EN
1 no. Mature Oak (T1) - Reduce crown back to previous growth points approximately 4m off top. Laterals to be pruned back to match in with tops. To safeguard the health and amenity of the tree.

T/26/101880 Granted
52 MALLARDS ROAD, BURSLEDON, SOUTHAMPTON, SO31 8LQ
1 No. Oak (T1) - Reduce crown height by about 2–3m, north aspect by about 1–2m, and east, south, west aspects by about 2–3m. Dimensions after pruning will be about 14m in height, and crown spreads of about 5–6m in each direction. Works are in the interest of reasonable tree management given its proximity to nearby structures. Works will not cause significant harm to the tree, and as the profile will remain mostly unchanged from public viewpoints, it will have no detrimental impact on its contribution to local character.
