Sound familiar? You’re in the right place.
A large tree in your Itchen Valley garden is affecting the light, roots are lifting paving, or you’re worried about it before the next storm.
You’ve bought a property in Twyford or Colden Common with several mature trees and want a professional health check and management plan.
An ash on your property has a sparse canopy and is dropping branches early — ash dieback is now widespread in south Hampshire’s chalk valleys.
You’d like to reduce or fell a garden tree but want to check whether it has a TPO before instructing anyone to start work.
Tree surgery in Twyford: what you need to know
Twyford and Colden Common sit in the Itchen Valley, one of Hampshire’s finest chalk stream corridors, just five miles south of Winchester.
Itchen Valley chalk-loving trees
The Itchen Valley’s chalk geology supports a rich tree flora — yew, beech, whitebeam, field maple and native ash are all characteristic of older hedgerows and gardens in Twyford and Owslebury. Many larger trees in this area are decades old and require careful, knowledgeable management. We’re experienced with chalk-downland species and the sympathetic approach needed to maintain mature trees without compromising their long-term health.
Ash dieback south of Winchester
Ash dieback has now reached most Hampshire valleys, including the Itchen south of Winchester. Ash trees around Twyford, Colden Common and Owslebury that were healthy a few years ago are increasingly showing signs of decline — bare tops, failed lateral branches and bark lesions. We assess ash trees at all stages of dieback and can advise on whether felling is urgent or can be planned.
TPOs across Winchester’s villages
Winchester City Council maintains active TPO coverage across its villages, including Twyford and Colden Common. Village gardens and lane-side trees are often protected — particularly older specimens that form part of the landscape character. We always check the register before quoting and handle all required applications with the council on your behalf if a TPO is in place.
