Why it was refused

  1. The proposed felling of a protected tree is considered disproportionate in this circumstance and is not supported by sufficient evidence or investigation to justify complete removal. Revision: An application to remove only the sub-lateral growing out of the compromised component should be considered, which would reduce the risk of further failure whilst simultaneously retaining vital ecological habitat (Please see attached imagery). Development Manager (Authorised Officer of the Council) NB. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THE NOTES ATTACHED (RIGHTS OF APPEAL, ETC).

From the council's decision notice.
