Planning application

IVOR LODGE, WINDMILL LANE, BURSLEDON, SOUTHAMPTON, SO31 8BG

Decided Eastleigh T/26/102032 Consent under Tree Preservation Orders

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

2no. Apple Trees - Reducing height and spread, focusing on overly-long branches but ensuring the total amount of the live crown removed does not exceed 25%. We plan to remove the dead, diseased and broken branches together with those branches crossing and rubbing each, other to enable light to get to the lower branches. Following the RHS guidelines and good horticultural practice. Trees have not been managed for at least 10years and are extremely overgrown and unpractical for harvesting fruit above 12ft. The majority of the apples on the high branches are beyond reach even when using our extended long-handled apple picker, they then fall from a great height and end up bruised and with broken skins meaning they are unusable. Having discussed the management at length with Adam Maskill, Arboriculture Manager at EBC, we would like to manage the trees in November 2026.

    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.

    DERWENT, 28 LAKEWOOD ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1EW

    1no. Redwood (T4, originates from no. 30) - Crown lift of bottom 9 branches, to increase the amount of light reaching ground level. This is necessitated due to the dense nature of the tree's branches. This amounts to no more than a crown lift of 1m.

    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.
