5 Sleepers Hill Gardens Winchester Hampshire SO22 4NT
Trees 1, 2 & 4 Quercus ilex: Fell. (Amended)Tree 6. Taxus bacatta: FellThe site is a South facing garden, with a double row of mature trees within 8m of the nearest face of the property. The shading is extreme, and therefore the applicant wishes to fell one yew to the SE of the structure and three holm oaks occupying that northern row nearest the house, whilst retaining some of the southern row for screening from neighbouring properties. There are also two holm oaks to the SW aspect of the structure to be felled as they are both in a severe state of decline with a strong canopy bias over the neighbouring properties.Although appearing extreme, these trees aren't particularly visible from anywhere other than the garden of 5 Sleepers hill gardens, so removing this N aspect row will enable the occupants of Thurmond crescent to still enjoy the amenity of the S facing row, whilst alleviating the shading for the applicant.
