The Old Rectory Riverside Farm Lane Tichborne Hampshire SO24 0NA

Site boundary (council red line)

Proposal

T1: Ash- Permission for removal of the 2 lowest limbs on the tree, one of which extends over the lawn area, and one over the lawn on the opposing side of the hedge. Due to the trees exposed location, it has been shedding limbs in the higher winds, and the owner would like to remove the risk of these two lower limbs from failing. The deadwood will also be removed from the tree. T2: Ash- Removal of the lowest limb extending toward the tennis court for similar reasons. Due to the growth being so far towards the end of the limb, there are minimal pruning points for it to be taken back to. Further removal of the lowest limb extending over the garden area, and a smaller secondary limb running parallel to the hedge line. Deadwood is also to be removed. T3: Yew- Permission to crown lift to statutory height over the highway, and carry out a 2-3m canopy reduction over the tree (barely anything will be taken off the aspect of the tree over the driveway). This is to reduce the loading on the over extending limbs over the road, and to improve access for the traffic using the road. Deadwood is also to be removed.
