Why it was refused

  1. The approved planting in and around the Suds has not been completed. The Suds are overgrown with vegetation/detritus, so the wetland wildflower and marginal planting is not evident.
  2. the planting around the Suds is not acceptable for the following reasons: Play boulders and seats are absent from the site. Individual trees have either died, are missing or are poor specimens through lack of appropriate maintenance. Some trees now girdled. Tree stakes missing. Buffer mix missing, not maintained so has been invaded by brambles. Planting around the Suds basin missing as not maintained and overgrown. Wildflower areas not present. Knee rails are damaged at the brackets. No evidence of bulb planting. Ground cover specimens are in poor condition, with no mulch. Further details in 26-00286-S106 POS inspection & 26-00394-S106 Suds inspection.

From the council's decision notice.
