If you would like to remove a tree or hedge, or if you have already removed a tree or hedge and need to apply retrospectively, you will need to fill out the below form.
Your application will need several pieces of information which differs if you have removed your tree or hedge.
After receiving all the information needed, our Tree Specialist will make an inspection before we grant permission. This usually takes around three to four weeks.
From 1 Feb 2021, there is a fee of £216 (including VAT) for a retrospective tree or hedge application. Please note that if the tree or hedge is deemed as being dangerous, diseased or dying, then a retrospective fee is not applicable. A tree surgeon’s report should be submitted in this instance alongside photographic evidence of the condition of the tree.
