Planning application
41 LOWER ST. HELENS ROAD, HEDGE END, SOUTHAMPTON, SO30 0LX
Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
2no. Mature Ash Trees (T1&T2) - Crown reduction by 2.5-3m in height and 2-2.5m on all sides leaving a canopy spread of 10m in height and 15m width. These trees are now drawing both front and back gardens respectively, encroaching on the roof and walls and so this work is required to make their size more suitable for their surroundings, preventing damage to the property and allowing more light in to the house.

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.

T/26/102073 Decided
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.
