Why it was refused
- A ground level inspection found the tree to be in good physiological and structural condition, displaying normal vigour and no visible defects indicative of imminent or foreseeable failure. Furthermore, there was no evidence to suggest that the root system has been significantly compromised. As the reasons advanced in support of the application have not been substantiated by the evidence available, the proposed works are not considered justified and the application is therefore not supported.
From the council's decision notice.
