What Makes a Tree Protected and How Do I Find Out
Trees play an essential role in our environment as they provide shade, clean air and aesthetic value our surroundings. However they are not all equal and some carry extra protection status, which makes it illegal to do any work without obtaining permission. If you are considering having a tree removed, it's essential to understand the status of protection for the tree in question, and the steps you have to follow to be in compliance with the law.
