31 NICHOL ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5AY
Five English Oak (Quercus Robur) T1 - Overall crown reduction of 3m T2-5 - Overall crown reduction of 3 to 4m depending on suitable pruning points identified when undertaking the works. The Oak at the front of the property is to be worked on to clear the branches from the property and also proactively raising over the public footpath and clear back from the highway. The reason the Oaks to the rear of the property are to be worked on, is to allow more sunlight penetrate to the lower vegetation which will help encourage ornamental vegetation growth.

1 No. Oak (297-E) - Remove growth from trunk to height 3m. Growth consists of five lateral branches all from the south west side of the Oak's trunk. This will rebalance the oak's previous shape, restore its historical crown height (~5m from ground level), increase light and prevent low branch obstruction.

17 FOREST CLOSE, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1NB
1no. Silver Birch (T1) - Dismantle the to ground level. Replant with new Silver Birch as like-for-like replacement. Tree is in decline and is shedding significant deadwood from canopy. Main stem has an old major pruning/wound point with significant dysfunction and deterioration around the union. Remaining upright stem originates above this compromised area, creating potential structural weak point. The pronounced change in stem direction also places additional mechanical loading and leverage on weakened section, particularly during high winds.
