26/00368/TW Granted
19 Orchard Road Shanklin Isle Of Wight PO37 7NX
Amendment to proposed works (13.05.2026): T1; Ash: Remove at ground level. Reason: The tree exhibits bark delamination and decay at the base, and it is currently leaning toward the neighbouring property to the southwest T2; Oak - Crown reduced by 30%. This includes reducing the overextended limbs to the southwest to balance the new crown form. Reason: Due to one-sided growth and the uphill position relative to the property. T3 Oak: Reduce the crown by 2-3m to strong growth points and crown lift by removing the lowest branch growing SW. We will also remove the two largest deadwood branches if they are found to be at risk of falling upon closer inspection. Reason: The tree appears to have sustained prior storm damage or significant pruning, with the current crown supported by a damaged area overhanging a seating area. TG4 Oak Group: Crown clean the remaining oak trees within the grounds of the property to remove visible hanging branches and larger deadwood.

Redhill Farm Redhill Lane Wroxall Ventnor Isle Of Wight PO38 3ER
T4; English Oak - Reduce lower lateral over-extending branches back to suitable growth points up to 2-3m from branch tips; remove downward growing branches to prevent further leveraging. Reason: Lower canopy has become unbalanced and leaning more towards the client's property. By reducing the large lateral limbs and removing downward growth we hope to promote re-balancing and take off some weight to prevent leveraging.
