2no. Oak - Reduce the lower crown of the trees overhanging the garden by up to 3m and by between 3-5m where they overhang the neighbouring gardens to abate nuisance. To manage canopy density and restore ecological balance to the domestic amenity space. Selective thinning and minor lateral reduction aim to increase ambient light filtration through the canopy. Will alleviate the heavy shade on the garden, ensuring the survival and growth of surrounding flora while fully maintaining overall structural integrity, health, and prominent public amenity value of the oak trees. 1no. Fir - Reduce all over by no more than 1-2m. Growing in close proximity between two mature oak trees, resulting in canopy crowding and mutual suppression. Developed an over-extended and unbalanced lateral spread, which is impacting the form of the adjacent oaks. Work involves a sympathetic crown lift and lateral reduction to define its form, reduce immediate structural footprint, and prevent it from encroaching further into the canopy of the higher-amenity oak trees. Will restore balance to the group dynamic and ensure the long-term vitality of all three specimens. 1no. Birch - Fell. Initial proposal for a crown reduction is no longer appropriate or viable. Tree has suffered significant structural failure, main apical leader having already snapped off. Is heavily suppressed beneath the dominant canopy of the adjacent mature oak trees, resulting in an excessive structural lean. Felling is requested on safety grounds and to optimize the growing environment for the high-value oak trees. Removing this compromised specimen will alleviate localized competition for root volume, soil nutrients, and moisture, thereby actively supporting the long-term health and vitality of the dominant oaks.

T/26/101855 Granted
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.

10 GORDON ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5AN
1 No. Oak (T1) - Crown reduction by 1.5m to curtail growth & shading of properties. 2 No. Oak (T2 & T3) - Crown lift, removing lower secondary branches to give 6m clearance over rear garden & improve shape.

DERWENT, 28 LAKEWOOD ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1EW
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.

82 HILTINGBURY ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5NZ
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.
