Tree protection and preservation
There are three main mechanisms by which individual trees and groups of trees may be protected –
- Tree Preservation Order
- Location in a Conservation Area
- Need for felling licence from the Commission
Cotswold District Council has produced a leaflet on “Tree Protection and Preservation”, which is available from the Countryside and Landscape Section (contact details at the bottom of the page).
