    21/01697/TPC Submitted 21 Jun 2021 51m away

    PART 1 Species: Leylandii We would like to remove the branches from a row of 16 Leylandii that overhang the boundary between our property and our neighbours ('Opposite the Church', Woodman Lane). The trees were planted a number of years ago (presumably as a hedge) and have been unmaintained over the years leaving them in a straggly and untidy condition. When we moved to our property we were advised by a Winchester City Council tree inspector who visited the site that, due to their nature, we should treat the row as a hedge and we would not need planning permission to prune them back (REF: 16/02593/TPC). If we prune them back a little we will soon get back to wood that will not produce new growth and will leave unsightly branches without foliage. Therefore we propose to prune them back close to the trucks, which are on the boundary itself. This will allow new vegetation to grow up underneath and will give us the option to plant more suitable trees and plants our side of the boundary. We are currently unable to fully utilise this area of our garden due to the overhanging branches and we would prefer to be able to encourage the growth of new vegetation in this area which is impossible at the moment. The pruned areas will only be visible to us, no other neighbours will be affected and we are willing to live with the bare trunks until other vegetation and trees can be planted. There are already three holly trees that are struggling to grow due to the lack of light from the overhanging branches in the specified area that we would like to encourage if possible. Furthermore, the branches that overhang our property create a very dark and damp environment where moss and algae grow. This side of our property includes a run of steps, giving access from the front of our house to the back garden, and they are often slippery and unsafe due to debris from the trees and the lack of light and air circulation PART 2 Species: Horse Chestnut We would like to reduce the size of the...

    I also talked to you about cutting down the ash tree in the centre of three at the back of our house and which is inhibiting the grown of the other two. We had planning permission to do this previously and would like to get the work done at the same time as the conifers are being cropped back if possible. (previous application 21/01697/TPC)

    Yew tree at south end of garden adjoining Woodman Lane Crown reduction of two metres to the east side overhanging Woodman Lane. Note - permission lasted granted in 2015 reference W01874/11TPOCA. Section overhanging road needs to be removed to allow clearance for larger vehicles, particularly those servicing the Moorcourt Farm. Crown lift to one metre above ground level on remaining sides of tree to allow maintenance of balance. Work identical to that approved in 2015
