Planning application
19 BENMORE GARDENS, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1TT
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
1no. Oak (T2) - Crown reduction by approx. 2–3m over the garden side only as per the photo submitted. Focusing primarily on the over-extended lateral canopy on one side to reduce lateral spread by approx. 2–3m due to structural imbalance. The tree exhibits a significant asymmetrical crown, with disproportionate growth extending laterally. Elevated risk of limb failure, particularly in high winds. Maintain natural shape and balance. Remove excessive end-weight from extended limbs. Retain overall tree health and structural integrity. Improves long-term sustainability of the tree. Maintain local amenity. Tree will be inspected prior to works for nesting birds and protected species. Works will be scheduled outside the main bird nesting season where possible (March–August), or halted if active nests are found.

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.
