Tree surgery being carried out in Hartley Wintney, Hampshire

Hartley Wintney lies about twelve miles from Farnham and is one of the most attractive villages we work in. It is also one where tree work needs a light and knowledgeable touch, because the trees are a large part of what makes the place what it is.

The village is best known for the oaks on the common, planted in the eighteenth century by Lady Mildmay with the intention of supplying timber to the Royal Navy. The Navy never needed them, and the result is one of the finest stands of veteran oak in Hampshire, right in the middle of the village beside the cricket green. Veteran trees like these are a specialist matter and are managed accordingly - we mention them mainly because they set the tone for what the village expects of anyone working on its trees.

Much of Hartley Wintney sits within a Conservation Area, which means that works to trees generally require six weeks' written notice to Hart District Council before anything can proceed. This catches a lot of people out. We handle that notification process as a matter of routine and will tell you at the quoting stage what the timescale realistically looks like.

The private gardens here tend to be substantial, with mature oak, beech, lime and sweet chestnut, plus a good deal of established yew and box. Much of our work in the village is careful reduction and deadwooding on large specimen trees rather than removal - the aim is nearly always to keep the tree and manage it well, and we would far rather advise that than sell you a felling job you do not need.

We also maintain a number of the long boundary hedges around the village and out towards Phoenix Green and Hartfordbridge, most of them beech or mixed native species on annual cycles.

Much of the village is, yes. That means you generally need to give Hart District Council six weeks' written notice before carrying out work to trees, even if they are not individually protected by a Tree Preservation Order. We handle that notification for you.

If a Conservation Area notice is required, plan on six weeks from submission before work can start. We will be upfront about this when we quote so you can plan around it rather than being surprised by it.

We work on mature trees regularly and take a conservative approach to them - minimal intervention, retaining as much of the tree as is safely possible. Genuinely ancient specimens such as the common oaks are a specialist matter, and we will say so plainly if a tree is beyond what we would recommend taking on.

Almost always. In a village like Hartley Wintney the mature trees are a large part of the character of the place. If a tree can be sensibly retained and managed we will tell you so, even where removal would be the bigger job for us.

Yes. We look after a number of beech and mixed native boundary hedges around Hartley Wintney, Phoenix Green and Hartfordbridge, generally on an annual cycle.
