23/00775/TREEWorks to Protected TreeRefused

Refused on 27 June 2023

Council decision: RefuseDelegated (officer decision)

Proposal

No more than 8 trees to reduce in height to clear a point to point microwave link. A crown reduction of up to 4m off the ultimate height of the trees interfering with the link. Reduced trees will be tapered into the remaining woodland belt to merge the neighbouring tree crowns to lessen amenity visual impact and allow the microwave link to pass over the crowns.
