Planning application
41 LOWER ST. HELENS ROAD, HEDGE END, SOUTHAMPTON, SO30 0LX
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
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.

30 RANDALL ROAD, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 5AL
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.
