Works: Trees
Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.
Proposal
T1 Sycamore - Reduce crown by approx 2.5m, tip reduction to suitable growth points which will maintain the appearance and amenity value of the tree prune minor branches around phone line by 1.5m to clear cable. Reason: The tree dominates the front garden, blocks light to the house and drops detritus including bird droppings on the driveway, cars and neighbouring garage and driveway. Proposed work will reduce the detrimental aspects of the tree while maintaining it as a high value amenity asset.
