  1no. Sycamore - Crown reduction of 2.5-3m on the north, south and west sides, with the height of the crown reduced by 3-4m. This will keep the crown balanced. See enclosed Tree Inspection Report for further information. Extremely concerned about the health of the tree, it's location close to the house and the damage it would cause if a bough were to fall on the house. It is showing clear indication deterioration since the first application. Furthermore, recent branches falling close to our playhouse and into a neighbour's garden demonstrate an extended risk. Serious personal harm or loss of life are a real risk. Urgently requesting permission to carry the recommended tree works as soon as possible.

  30 RANDALL ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5AL

  1no. Silver Birch (T1) - Fell to ground level due to poor physiological state of the tree which has been occurring over the last four years. There is no reasonable reduction of the crown possible that would prolong the life of the tree as tree is unlikely to respond well to pruning. Replant with another Birch.
