33 LAKEWOOD ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1EU
2no. Oak (T1 & T2) – Reduce lateral growth on the garden-facing sides of both trees by approximately 1.5 to 2m, selectively pruning back to suitable secondary growth points. To maintain a natural & balanced crown shape while allowing increased light penetration into the garden. This work is in keeping with sympathetic reductions previously carried out on a neighbouring oak tree (approved & completed last year) & will help ensure a uniform appearance & continued good management of the trees.

11 VALLEY ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1GQ
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.

1no. Redwood (T4, originates from no. 30) - Crown lift of bottom 9 branches, to increase the amount of light reaching ground level. This is necessitated due to the dense nature of the tree's branches. This amounts to no more than a crown lift of 1m.

1 No. Sweet Chestnut (T1) - Crown lift 3x lower branches by 3.5m to allow room underneath tree to stop the customer hitting their heads. 1 No. Beech (T2) - Crown lift lower branches by 5m and reduce branch back away from strawberry tree to give a 2m clearance, to allow ground clearance.

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.
