43 Cranbourne Drive, Otterbourne, Winchester, SO21 2ES

(amended)Sited to the rear of block 4 (flats 20-23) within the woodland shelter belt. T1 Sycamore It is proposed to undertake a selective crown reduction and lateral branch reduction to the south-western aspect of the Sycamore canopy. The proposed works are required to address branches that have become overextended and are encroaching upon the adjacent building and roof structure. The south-western canopy will be selectively reduced to establish a minimum clearance of approximately 2.5m from the roof structure, whilst retaining sufficient crown volume to maintain the tree?s natural form and amenity value. The upper canopy, which currently extends significantly above the roofline, will be selectively reduced and blended into the surrounding crown to reduce its dominance over the building. The overextended upper growth will be reduced by no less than approximately 1.5m, where necessary, to achieve a balanced and proportionate crown profile. Pruning will be undertaken selectively, with no individual pruning cut exceeding 60mm in diameter. Cuts will be made at suitable pruning points and positioned to minimise the risk of decay and maintain the tree?s structural integrity. The proposed works are intended to provide appropriate clearance from the building whilst retaining the overall character, health, structure and visual amenity of the tree. Works to be carried out in accordance with BS3998(2010), nearest best practice pruning points
