Summary
The application proposes either felling an English oak tree entirely, or cutting it back to a bare stump 4 metres tall. The tree stands on land next to School Close at Monks Brook Industrial Estate in Eastleigh. The tree is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO.TVBC.0105). This means the council must give permission before any work can be done on it. The applicant says the tree poses a danger, which is the reason for applying. If approved, the tree could be removed or left as a standing stump. A replacement tree may be required by the council as a condition of approval.
