What refusal means
The process from here
The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.
Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

T6 - Scots Pine. A substaintial, mature sized, but poor specimen scots pine, in very close proximity to the right side of the property. Given it's condition the tree has low amenity value and for the majority of the year is significantly obscured from public view by several very large beech trees. Since previously inspected by the Tree Officer, several large branches have dropped so they are now in contact with the property's roof. Given the tree?s mature height, ongoing growth and proximity to the property, if left these branches are at extremely high risk of causing damage to the roof. Should they drop furtuer, or fall due to any storm instability, the damage to property would be significant and extensive. Having sought advice regarding possible pruning / canopy lifting of the pine, we have been advised that, given the condition and shape of the tree, the options here are limited. In addition, as this is a mature tree, the root system is at high risk of causing future damage to the building as well as indirect effects on underground services. With the concern regarding foreseeable structural and safety impacts, which are considered to outweigh the tree?s amenity value due to its condition and specific positioning in relation to other mature trees, this application is to fell the tree. If necessary to support the application, we would be happy to replant a more suitable species in ground away from the building. However, there are already numerous other well established trees as the property, several of which already protected by TPOs.

T2 & T4: Larch- Fell to ground level. The pair of trees are in very close proximity to the neighbouring property, and overhang in parts by a substantial amount. The trees are both also reaching over-maturity, and have lost a number of limbs in the past as a result of being very over- extended. The pair of trees are now suppressing 2 Yew trees growing below them, and their removal will prevent any further limb failures, and allow the Yew trees to fill the space with a better structural form. T3: Yew- Crown lift to a height of 3-4m from ground level, removing only minor secondary laterals and no major limbs. (Amended)

Tall Trees Peach Hill Lane Crawley Winchester Hampshire SO21 2PZ
T6 - Yew tree Height 18m to reduce to no less than 15m, radial spread 11m to reduce to no less than 8m. Arboricultural Justification: To undertake a sympathetic crown reduction in accordance with BS3998:2010 to maintain the tree at a sustainable size relative to its growing environment and reducxe end-weight thoughout the crown. The works will lessen mechanical loading on extnded limbs, improve the tree's long-term structural integrity, and reduce the liklihood of branch failure during adverse weather conditions. The propsoed reduction will retain the tree's natural form and amenity value whilst establishing an appropriate management cycle for this mature specimen. T7 - Sycamore to take back to source the first 4no branches at 35mm stem diameter Arboricultural Justification: To remove four small lower branches by pruning bak to source. The works are minor in nature and intended to improve canopy structure and provide appropriate clearance beneath the crown. The proposed pruning involves the removal of small diameter branches only and will not adversely affect the health or stability of the tree. (Amended)

Currawong George Eyston Drive Winchester Hampshire SO22 4PE
T1-T5 Beech - All 5 trees have extensive squirrel damage in upper limbs and branches. These are now posing a safety hazard to the owners & neighbours. Suggestion is to shorten damaged limbs and branches as appropriate to their lengths and amount of damage to reduce the risk of failure. Estimated reduction is maximum 3m but less if safe to do so & leaving decent growth points. 1 limb recently broke & fell into owners garden & the climbing inspection was undertaken & the damage was highlighted.
