Planning application
5 SYDNEY ROAD, BISHOPSTOKE, EASTLEIGH, SO50 6DJ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
1no. Silver Birch (T1) - On the side facing the house and garden a reduction of 2m to remove the branches that touch the roofs. On the side facing the road a reduction of 1.5m in order to clear the street light. 1no. Norwegian Spruce (T2) - Reduction of 1m all round, maintaining the present shape. 1no. Norwegian Spruce (T3) - Reduction of 1.5m on the southern side facing the telegraph pole to disentangle the branches from the phone lines. On the side facing the road a reduction of 1m maintaining the current shape of the tree. The branches of T1 are resting on roof of garage and house, potentially leading to the dislodging of roof tiles and consequent leaks. Branches are fouling the streetlight on Sydney Road and the telephone lines from the telegraph pole adjacent to house. T2 and T3 are fouling the telephone lines from the telegraph pole and the weight of the lower branches is resting on the telephone line to the house. All 3 trees are looking very heavy due to shallowness of their roots. To conduct routine maintenance on the trees within property's curtilage. They have grown very large since last pruned several years ago, do not want them to fall and cause damage or harm through lack of appropriate care.

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.
