25/02344/TPO Granted
Treetops Petersfield Road Winchester Hampshire SO23 0JD
The tree is a mature beech that sits toward the front of my plot and overhangs my neighbours garage. On 30/10/25 I gave WCC notice that deadwood needed to be removed. Mulberry Tree Services completed the work. The climber commented that two limbs were rubbing and one was worn through by about a third. He indicated that if left, either limb could eventually break off. He suggested that the upper part of the lower limb were removed to prevent this. On the photo provided. The yellow arrow shows the point where the limbs are rubbing and the red arrive the proposed point of removal.
