Refused Leeds 24/06101/TR Tree Works

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T1 Oak - The proposed works are to raise the crown of the oak tree on the southern aspect to 8m above ground level to provide sufficient clearance for garden. Tree is very large and has many low hanging branches that are impeding the growth of our garden beneath it.
