How it works
How to check if a tree has a TPO.
01Search the postcode
We find the location and plot every published TPO zone nearby on a map.
02Read the distance
Zones are shown by distance, not yes or no. Anything within 100 m deserves a closer look.
03Confirm with the council
Your Local Planning Authority has the final word. Get it in writing before work starts.
Reading a result
A blank result isn’t a clear one.
A Tree Preservation Order protects a named tree, group or woodland, and you need written consent before pruning, felling, topping, lopping or uprooting it. Every published TPO zone near your postcode is drawn on the map with its distance from the property.
Trees in a conservation area can be protected even where no TPO is shown, and council coverage of the national dataset is uneven — so your Local Planning Authority must confirm the status of any tree before work begins.
Checking TPOs in Broxtowe
Broxtowe Borough Council is the Local Planning Authority for this part of Nottinghamshire, covering Beeston, Stapleford, Kimberley, Eastwood and the surrounding villages. It makes and holds the Tree Preservation Orders for the area.
Enter a postcode above for a first indication from available public data, then confirm with Broxtowe Borough Council before any pruning, pollarding or felling.
Is Broxtowe's TPO data in the national dataset?
No — as of July 2026, Broxtowe Borough Council has not published its Tree Preservation Order records to planning.data.gov.uk, the national dataset this checker searches. Expect an empty map for a Beeston or Stapleford postcode, and treat it as exactly that: an absence of published data, not evidence a tree is unprotected. In a borough with mature suburbs like Bramcote and Attenborough's riverside setting, plenty of trees are protected — the records just live in the council's own register.
What the national dataset does hold for Broxtowe is 15 conservation areas, and inside those most trees are protected even without an individual TPO. The council can confirm both in one enquiry.
Getting the position in writing
With no Broxtowe TPO records published nationally, no public dataset can answer "is this tree protected?" outright — the council's own register holds that.
The report states this plainly for an address in Beeston, Stapleford, Kimberley, Eastwood or the surrounding villages, and checks the datasets that are published: conservation areas, Article 4 directions and listed buildings. Dated, in writing, and specific to the property rather than the postcode district.

Common questions
Before you pick up the saw.
Who handles TPOs in Beeston and Stapleford?
Broxtowe Borough Council is the Local Planning Authority for Beeston, Stapleford, Kimberley, Eastwood and the surrounding area, so it makes and holds the Tree Preservation Orders. Confirm any result with the council.
Why is the map empty for my Broxtowe postcode?
Broxtowe Borough Council had not published its TPO records to the national planning.data.gov.uk dataset when we last checked (July 2026), so the checker has nothing to show for the borough. That is a data gap, not an all-clear — confirm with the council before carrying out tree works.
Could a Broxtowe tree be protected without a TPO?
Yes. Trees in a conservation area can be protected without a TPO, usually requiring written notice before work. Ask Broxtowe Borough Council about conservation area status as well as checking for a TPO.
