Working in Conservation Areas
Conservation areas or TPO trees require a 5-day notice application

Emergency Tree Removal FAQs
If your property is in a conservation area or a tree preservation order protects the tree, then yes, you do need permission to cut down a tree in your garden.
If it is in imminent danger of falling over, we can cut it down, provided we have a detailed photo record of the process and reasons for doing the work. Otherwise, we must submit an emergency 5-day notice to the local council tree officer. Forbes Tree Care will do this for you.
Yes, Forbes Tree Care provides a 24 hour emergency call-out service.
The cost varies depending on the nature of the emergency, the size of the tree, the time of the call out and how many people are required to do the job safely.

Yes. If a tree is being felled, it can be cut down any time of year. If the stump is being poisoned, the poison will only take effect during the growing season (March - September).
Trees owned or managed by the council will have a pruning regime in place. You can ask your local tree officer about their schedule and when each tree will be cut.
The council have each tree on a pruning regime, typically to be pruned every 3-5 years. They tend not to cut trees due to limited sunlight but rather for the health of the tree or to restrict the roots.
The fine is unlimited if a tree is protected and you cut it down without council permission. It will be based on the nature of the offence, the visual and cultural amenity of the tree, and the CAVAT value of the tree.
