Planning application
10 Hawfinch Close Southampton SO16 8HQ
Works: Trees
Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.
Proposal
Turkey Oak - numbered 1 in the attached PLAN 1 reference document. Removal of all epicormic growth from the tree's main trunk up to the height of the first main branch, estimated to be 10m from the ground. Thin the tree's crown by 25% to allow more light to pass through the tree and reduce wind resistance. Reduce the crown of the tree by 5m in height and 6m in spread by pruning back to suitable growth points but retaining the tree's overall structure and framework.
