Protect the old Oak trees (aproxamate age 70yrs) and hedgerows lining Craythorne Road, Stretton, Burton-on-Trent with a TPO (tree preservation order) These trees are being threatened by development and possible road widening to facilitate a development of 385 houses.
The trees and hedgerow are a very important part of the village and a heaven for wildlife.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This is a matter for the local authority, which appears to be East Staffordshire Borough Council, not the UK Government or Parliament. It would be for East Staffs Council to issue a TPO: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/tree-preservation-orders-and-trees-in-conservation-areas.
