Protected trees in Beverley fall under East Riding of Yorkshire Council, which handles tree preservation order (TPO) applications. To check whether a tree is protected, you can search the council's planning constraints map, use its online 'Find out if a tree is protected' form, or email planning.trees@eastriding.gov.uk. Trees in a conservation area that are not covered by a TPO still need six weeks' notice to the council (a section 211 notice) before most work, unless an exception applies.
Common questions
Do I need permission to cut down or prune a tree in Beverley?
If a tree has a TPO, you must apply to East Riding of Yorkshire Council before carrying out most work. Apply through the Planning Portal, where the council says there is currently no charge; applications by email or post carry an administrative fee. The council may take up to eight weeks to decide. Trees in a conservation area without a TPO need six weeks' written notice before most work. Dead branches can be removed from a living protected tree without notifying the council.
How do I check a tree surgeon in Beverley is legitimate?
Three of the seven listed firms are on the Environment Agency waste carrier register, which you can search yourself. Businesses that transport waste must register as waste carriers, and householders should check any firm taking their waste is on the register. Five firms state they hold relevant qualifications. No firms on the Beverley list state they are ARB Approved Contractors; you can search that directory separately to find firms that do claim that status.
When should tree and hedge work be avoided because of nesting birds?
The main bird nesting season runs from March to September, though birds can nest outside it, so tree and hedge work should be checked for active nests at any time of year. It is an offence to intentionally take, damage or destroy a wild bird's nest while it is being used or built. Before carrying out any tree or hedge work, you or your tree surgeon should check carefully for nests regardless of the time of year.
What happens if a protected tree in Beverley is cut down without permission?
Cutting down, uprooting or wilfully destroying a protected tree is a criminal offence punishable by a fine, which is unlimited. This applies to trees covered by a TPO. If the council has not decided a TPO application within eight weeks, the applicant can appeal for non-determination rather than carrying out work without consent. The council responsible for enforcement in Beverley is East Riding of Yorkshire Council.
