Checking TPOs in North East Derbyshire

North East Derbyshire District Council is the Local Planning Authority for an area that wraps around Chesterfield, covering Dronfield, Clay Cross, Eckington, Killamarsh and the villages between. It makes and holds the district's Tree Preservation Orders.

Because the district borders Chesterfield Borough and the Sheffield city boundary, properties near those edges can be confusing — so check the postcode above and confirm with the right council.

Why confirm with the council

The available public data is incomplete and varies between councils, so a check here is guidance only. It cannot confirm the status of an individual tree.

Contact North East Derbyshire District Council's tree officer to confirm both TPO and conservation area status for the exact address, and get written confirmation before booking work.

Mind the boundaries

This district shares boundaries with Chesterfield Borough Council and, to the north, the Sheffield area. A property close to a boundary may fall under a neighbouring authority's records, so it is worth confirming exactly which council covers the address before you rely on a result.

When a manual check helps

Where the public data is unclear, where an address sits near a council boundary, or where significant works are planned, a manual protected-tree check gives a firmer answer. Request one, with a tree surgeon quote if needed, using the buttons below.

Local Planning Authority

Relevant authority: North East Derbyshire District Council.

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.
