Why it was refused

  1. T1 Liquidambar is a healthy specimen that makes a significant positive contribution to the character and appearance of the surrounding area and is therefore considered to have high amenity value. It is considered that insufficient evidence has been provided to demonstrate that the tree is responsible for the alleged damage to the driveway, with no supporting technical investigations or expert reports establishing a direct causal link. Furthermore, there is no evidence to demonstrate that appropriate alternative solutions, including repair works or engineering works to accommodate retaining tree roots, have been adequately explored. The proposed felling is therefore considered to be a disproportionate response to the issues raised and is not justified.

From the council's decision notice.
