Summary
The applicant wants permission to fell one goat willow tree — identified as T1 — in the garden of a house on Wetherby Road. Goat willows are native broadleaf trees that provide habitat for insects and birds. The property sits close to Roundhay Park, which is a nationally registered historic park and garden. Several medical care facilities are right next door, and Roundhay St John's C of E Primary School is a few minutes' walk away. The council will look at the tree's condition, its contribution to the character of the area, and any effect on the setting of the nearby registered park.
