A Tree Preservation Order (TPO) is the legal order to protect and preserve trees. All species of tree can be protected from a single tree to all trees within a defined area or woodland.

A TPO prevents felling, lopping, uprooting or other work to a tree without permission. If you break the TPO you could face a significant fine. TPOs are administered by your local Council as the Local Planning Authority (LPA) and are made to protect trees that provide a significant amenity benefit to the area.

It is a criminal offence to cut down, top, lop, uproot, wilfully damage or wilfully destroy a tree protected by a TPO, or to cause / permit such actions, without the authority’s permission. Such an offence is liable to prosecution, and a unlimited fine can be imposed. If you wish to undertake work to a tree covered by a TPO, an application will need to be made to the local authority. All proposed works need to a justified agriculturally with supporting evidence such as VTA results or photos from an aerial inspection for example.

As professional tree inspectors and arboricultural contractors we are ideally placed to manage the project from proposal, initial survey through to the completed works.
