Many trees are covered by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). If you are intending to prune, fell or do any other works to a tree you should check with us to see if permission is required. There are also controls over trees located within conservation areas. For more information on trees and hedges, follow the links below.

Coronavirus (COVID-19): We continue to provide services online and via telephone. However, we recognise that, in some cases, you will need an appointment with an officer so we offer limited pre-booked appointments at the Forum for urgent enquiries. You may experience longer waiting times or an online response due to increased demand on our services. Please call 01442 228000 and ask for the service you require. For council service updates and other advice, please see our COVID-19 page. ×
