Tree Preservation Orders and Trees in Conservation Areas in Lancashire

Tree Preservation Orders are used to protect trees of a high amenity value or which have a significant impact on the environment.  Once an order has been made, our consent is required before a tree may be pruned or felled. In certain circumstances, it may be agreed that pruning or removal may be permitted in order to accommodate development, but the TPO enables the council to control these actions and to obtain new planting to replace trees which are removed. Trees in Conservation Areas are also subject to protection. Anyone wishing to fell, prune or uproot trees in a conservation area must give us six weeks' notice, unless they form a hazard to public safety or are already covered by a TPO.  You can give notice of your intention to carry out work using the same form as undertaking works to trees covered by a TPO.

We can assist with submitting application for tree works via the planning portal.
