Planning application
17 FOREST CLOSE, CHANDLER'S FORD, EASTLEIGH, SO53 1NB
Works: Trees
Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.
Proposal
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.
