    1no.Oak (T1) – Reduce the western side of the tree by approximately 2m. Work is intended to manage the tree’s growth & improve light levels within garden of number 1 Guildford Drive. There are also a number of low hanging branches that require taking back for safety reasons as these are fairly weak and in high winds often break and fall into the garden of number 1 Guildford Drive. Reduction will be carried out sensitively, pruning back to appropriate growth points to maintain tree’s natural shape & overall health, while enhancing light penetration to the surrounding area.

    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.
