113 KINGSWAY, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5DU
Proposal
1no. Silver birch (T1) - Reduce in height and spread by 3m to balance canopy and improve amenity value to other road users. 1no. Yew (T2) - Crown lift to 3m over pavement, reduce in height and spread by 2m for the same reasons as T1. 1no. Sycamore (T3) - Fell. Significant longitudinal crack extends 4m up main stem, the whole way through the stem, making likelihood of failure in strong winds a high possibility.

What refusal means
The process from here
The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.
Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

128 KINGSWAY, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5DW
T1 – Quercus robur (Oak) Background: The tree was deadwooded within the past 24 months; however, it has continued to decline. Fungal brackets are now present around the base of the tree on all sides, indicating potential structural decay. Justification: Due to the tree’s close proximity to the property—with the main trunk located within inches of the structure—and its ongoing decline, it now presents a significant risk should failure occur. Proposed works: Removal of the tree and replacement with a standard Quercus robur (Oak) to be replanted in a more suitable location within the rear garden, ensuring appropriate future growth and relationship to nearby structures. The replacement tree will help to ensure overall amenity value within the garden. A new location within the garden away from site of existing fungus will allow a better chance of survival for new tree.

104 PITMORE ROAD, EASTLEIGH, SO50 4LW
1no. Oak (T13) - Crown reduction by 4m, also back to previous cut lines. Drip line for tree is currently within 3m of the rear of the property (104 Pitmore Road). Mature oak tree exhibiting extended lateral growth toward adjacent residential properties, resulting in significant end-weight on primary and secondary branches. The proposed reduction is intended to reduce end-weight, improve biomechanical stability, and mitigate foreseeable risk to property, while retaining the trees’ natural form, amenity value, and long-term health.

T/26/101492 Granted
13-17 HURSLEY ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 2FW
1no. Mature Oak (T1) – Crown reduction by reducing the lateral spread of the canopy by up to 3m on the longest extending limbs and by up to 2m elsewhere around the crown, maintaining a natural and balanced canopy form. The tree is situated within a commercial car park and overhangs adjacent pavement and highway areas. The crown also extends towards nearby telephone and overhead power lines. The proposed works form part of an ongoing cyclical maintenance programme to manage the size and spread of the crown in relation to surrounding infrastructure and site usage. A visible stress line is present from the principal stem union extending down the main trunk, indicating a potential structural weakness. The proposed crown reduction will lessen end-weight and sail effect throughout the canopy, thereby reducing loading on the main scaffold limbs and stem unions. This will help minimise the likelihood of branch or stem failure and improve the long-term management of risk associated with the tree's location above areas of regular pedestrian and vehicular activity. The works will retain the tree's amenity value while promoting its continued safe retention within the landscape.
