Refused Eastleigh T/26/101728 Consent under Tree Preservation Orders

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

2no. Oak (G1) growing as a single canopy. - Reduce the overall canopy height from approx. 20m to no less than 16m, with pruning cuts not exceeding 55mm in diameter. - Reduce the overall canopy spread from approx. 19m to no less than 16m, with pruning cuts not exceeding 40mm in diameter. - Crown lift to 5.5m above the adjacent highway to provide statutory clearance. - Remove epicormic growth from the stems up to a height of 6m above ground level. The works are intended to provide appropriate clearance over the highway, maintain safe vehicular access, and manage the size of the combined canopy while retaining the trees' overall form, health, and amenity value. The works constitute routine arboricultural management and are limited in extent to ensure the long-term vitality and structural integrity of the trees.

    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.
