Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.
Proposal
Crown lifting and lateral pruning of the mature Oak tree located adjacent to the eastern boundary to accommodate an authorized single-storey side extension. Selective pruning of lower branches to provide vertical clearance above the new roofline, and cutting back lateral branches to the boundary line to remove structural overhang over the construction site.
