Why it was refused

  1. The mature Walnut tree is considered to be of significant amenity value which contributes to the special amenity value of the area. The proposal to fell the tree is considered to be inappropriate and excessive and would have a detrimental impact on the amenity value and character of the local area. Nic Thomas - Director of Planning, Economy and Regeneration Right of appeal against Tree Works refusal and/or conditions
