Planning application

48 Orchard Close Alresford Hampshire SO24 9PY

Granted Winchester 25/02373/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Minor work is being requested on six trees within the TPO area referenced. A sketch diagram is attached. The trees are marked with pentagons labelled 1 - 6. The six trees are adjacent to our garden fence and overhang a flat roof over outbuildings and patio area. Growth from the trees overhangs felted roof and will abrade/damage this. In addition there is the potential for pressure/friction damage to the fence. The work intended is to cut the overhanging branches back to the main stem/trunk of the tree. All branches are less than 2-3 inches in diameter. Tree 1 is a sycamore that has been previously pollarded/coppiced around 2 foot above the ground. Vigorous regrowth from the stool is leaning against the fence and over the flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage. Tree 2 is a cyprus with a tree ivy growing through it. This also overhangs the flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage. Tree 3 is a field maple. Branches from it are pressing against the fence and flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage. Tree 4 - This is a young sycamore that is growing between the stems of tree 5. Branches overhang the fence and flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage. Tree 5 - Field maple. Growing with the sycamore between its stems. Overhangs the fence. Pruning to prevent property damage. Tree 6 - Field maple. Branches overhang the fence. Pruning to prevent property damage. We would like to lift the crown on the west side only of each tree where they overhang/brush against our fence/outbuilding's flat roof. This will be no more than 3m from ground level.
