Why it was refused
- The proposed removal of the Cedar is considered unacceptable the applicant has had a Arboricultrural Consultant assess the tree and has made recommendations which have been approved on a previous application. The Tree surgeon should use there experience when reducing in line with the recommendations in BS3998 targeting growth points. The removal of this tree could have a detrimental impact upon the adjacent Pine leaving it vulnerable to the elements, which could result in loss of limbs or complete failure. These trees have high public amenity value and there loss would be of detrement to the character of the area. Therefore the application is refused.
From the council's decision notice.
