Proposal

2no. Oak (G1) growing as a single canopy. - Reduce the overall canopy height from approx. 20m to no less than 16m, with pruning cuts not exceeding 55mm in diameter. - Reduce the overall canopy spread from approx. 19m to no less than 16m, with pruning cuts not exceeding 40mm in diameter. - Crown lift to 5.5m above the adjacent highway to provide statutory clearance. - Remove epicormic growth from the stems up to a height of 6m above ground level. The works are intended to provide appropriate clearance over the highway, maintain safe vehicular access, and manage the size of the combined canopy while retaining the trees' overall form, health, and amenity value. The works constitute routine arboricultural management and are limited in extent to ensure the long-term vitality and structural integrity of the trees. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 5

Nutrient neutrality catchment: Solent: Includes Chichester and Langstone Harbours SPA/Ramsar, Solent and Southampton Water SPA/Ramsar, Solent Maritime SAC, Portsmouth Harbour SPA/Ramsar
New homes and overnight accommodation must show nutrient neutrality before approval.
Natural England advice: extra wastewater in these catchments harms protected habitats, so schemes must offset their nutrient load, usually through credits.
Also on the record
Scheduled monument about 201 m away: Section of Roman road 250yds (230m) long SW of Titlark Farm; Inside the Chandler's Ford built-up area; Priority habitat about 39 m away: Deciduous woodland; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 4, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
