How it works
Enter a postcode
Type in the postcode for the property. We use it to find the location — no account or sign-up needed.
Check available TPO data
We search available public datasets for Tree Preservation Order records that may be near that location.
Confirm before work starts
Use the result as a starting point, then confirm with your Local Planning Authority before any tree works.
Derby City Council is the unitary Local Planning Authority for the city, separate from the surrounding Derbyshire district councils. It makes and holds the Tree Preservation Orders for properties within the city boundary.
Enter a postcode above for a first indication from available public data, then confirm the position with Derby City Council before any tree work.
A check here is guidance only — the available public data is incomplete and varies by council. A record near a Derby property does not confirm a specific tree is protected, and a nil result does not confirm it is not.
For a reliable answer, contact Derby City Council's tree officer, ask about both TPOs and conservation area status for the address, and get written confirmation before work begins.
Where the public data is unclear, where works are significant, or where a sale depends on the answer, a manual protected-tree check can give you confidence. It means someone reviewing Derby City Council's sources for the specific address and confirming what they find.
Once you know what consent, if any, is required, a qualified, insured tree surgeon can carry out the work safely and help with any council application. Request a tree surgeon quote alongside a manual check using the buttons below.
Relevant authority: Derby City Council.
Council data may vary
Each council publishes its Tree Preservation Order data differently, and some hold records only in their own offices. Always check the official council sources and confirm with the Local Planning Authority before tree works.
Not sure what the result means?
Request a manual protected tree check before you prune, pollard or fell. We will review the available council sources for the specific address and confirm what we find.
