Planning application
161 KINGSWAY, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5BY
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Sweet chestnut (252-E): I wish to carry out a 5-10% crown thin. specifically targeting inner epicormic growth, rubbing branches and unnecessary growth. This is to help to try and prevent any issues with the long term health and stability of the tree. I feel this will help remove some weight and wind sail from the canopy, as the tree is growing very lateral. The proposed work wont effect the shape or amenity of the tree.

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.

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.
