SDNP/26/02732/TPO - Tree Preservation Order Approved

Proposal

T1 - Lime Tree T2 - Copper Beech Reduce the crown of the Lime (T1) by up to 2 metres and the Copper Beech (T2) by up to 1 metre, pruning secondary and tertiary branches only. All works will be undertaken in accordance with good arboricultural practice, retaining the trees natural form and ensuring a balanced crown structure. The proposed works are required as both trees have extended over the adjacent property, resulting in excessive shading of the rear garden. The pruning will help to manage the trees' size and mitigate their impact while preserving their amenity value. The proposed works form part of an ongoing cyclical maintenance programme to ensure the continued health, safety, and appropriate management of the trees. Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 6

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.
