26/02109/TPO - Tree Preservation Order Current

Proposal

T1 Oak cut back North North East Side by 1.5m cut back North West Side by 1m and cut back South West Side and south side by up to 1.5m leaving tree in a uniformed shape once work is completed. This will reduce the mess on the conservatory, and cut back the rest to manage the tree by making it slight smaller and less dominate over the garden 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
National park 163 m away: South Downs; Radon affected area, class 2; Inside the Swanmore built-up area; 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.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No listed building at the site
