Tree Surveys for Historic Properties & Estates — North West & Nationwide
Urban Tree Management provides specialist tree surveys and risk management programmes for historic houses, designed parkland landscapes, heritage hotels, and private estates across the North West and nationally.
Our clients include Warner Hotels — for whom we have delivered large-scale tree risk management programmes at Bodelwyddan Castle in North Wales and Alvaston Hall in Cheshire.
What Historic Estate Clients Need
Historic parkland landscapes present a unique arboricultural challenge — balancing the public safety obligation to manage tree risk against the landscape conservation obligation to retain the character of a designed historic landscape. Mature and veteran trees of exceptional arboricultural and heritage value require assessment at the highest level of professional competence.
