Trees & landscaping

Proposal

Front garden bordering Carmans Lane. Mature Copper Beech has two branches trailing on the power cables in the lane. Please may we reduce the tips of these branches by about 90cm for clearance of the cables. Yew tree close to adjacent property (St Patrick's) needs maintenance of current size and shape. Please may we reduce the crown size by 30cm to prevent interference with the house (St Patricks) on one side and the power cable on the opposite side. Back garden Three adjacent Yew trees in the bottom corner of the garden bordering Carmans House back garden. Please may we reduce the crown by 1.5m to maintain size and shape and prevent interference with adjacent trees in neighbouring garden (Carmans House) and maintain current light levels. Small central Yew tree. Please may we reduce crown by 50 cm to maintain size and shape Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 9

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.
Compton Street conservation area
Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.
The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.
Heritage at risk: Compton Street
On the register of historic places assessed as at risk.
A designated building, monument, park or conservation area assessed as at risk from neglect, decay or development. Proposals that secure its future are looked on favourably.
Historic England ↗
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 1
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
6 listed buildings within 150 m of the postcode pin
Nearest: Drovers Cottage, Grade II, about 31 m from the postcode pin · 1 Grade II*, 4 Grade II
The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.

Also on the record
Local nature reserve about 460 m away: Shawford Down; National infrastructure project about 1951 m away: Hampshire Water Transfer and Water Recycling Project; Inside the Shawford built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 6 October 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
