Refused Isle of Wight 26/00453/TW Tree Works to TPO

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

T1; Yew - Remove Reason: The tree presents a risk as it has outgrown the bed it was planted in that is encompassed by a mock stone wall which has collapsed and been re-built several times. The general public waiting for the bus sit on the wall, which is a serious risk and presents a health and safety risk.

    Redhill Farm Redhill Lane Wroxall Ventnor Isle Of Wight PO38 3ER

    T4; English Oak - Reduce lower lateral over-extending branches back to suitable growth points up to 2-3m from branch tips; remove downward growing branches to prevent further leveraging. Reason: Lower canopy has become unbalanced and leaning more towards the client's property. By reducing the large lateral limbs and removing downward growth we hope to promote re-balancing and take off some weight to prevent leveraging.
