Why it was refused

  1. The tree is visible from the public highway and continues to make a positive contribution to the character and appearance of the surrounding area. At present, there is insufficient information submitted in support of the application to demonstrate that the tree is unsafe or at immediate risk of failure. We note your arborist’s assessment, which identifies weak unions at the base and a decay cavity within the multi- stem structure. In light of this, the Council would recommend undertaking appropriate diagnostic or mechanical testing to more accurately assess the extent of any decay and associated structural concerns. The results of such testing would provide a clearer evidence base to inform and justify any proposed removal of the tree.

From the council's decision notice.
