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.

Where trees are protected without a TPO
North Northamptonshire Council publishes none of this to the national dataset, but it does publish its own TPO records separately and we import them directly — so a postcode check in North Northamptonshire does search this council's orders, and the map shows them. That is still a copy of the council's data rather than the register itself, so confirm anything that matters with North Northamptonshire Council.
North Northamptonshire Council has published 82 conservation areas nationally. That matters here: trees in a conservation area are protected whether or not a TPO exists, and you must normally give the council six weeks' written notice before doing work to one. The paid report checks conservation areas, Article 4 directions and listed-building curtilage for a specific address alongside TPOs.

Common questions
Before you pick up the saw.
Does North Northamptonshire Council publish its Tree Preservation Orders?
Not to the national planning dataset — as of 30 July 2026 it had published no Tree Preservation Order zones there. It does publish its own records separately, and we import them directly, so a postcode check on this site does search North Northamptonshire TPO data. The council's register remains the definitive source.
If the checker finds nothing in North Northamptonshire, is the tree safe to cut?
No. A clear result means no record we hold sits near that postcode, which is genuine information but not permission. The record may not cover the specific tree you have in mind, registers can lag behind newly made orders, and a tree can also be protected by a conservation area, a planning condition or a felling licence. Confirm with North Northamptonshire Council before any work.
How do I check whether a tree in North Northamptonshire is protected?
Start with a free postcode check above to see any published records nearby and any conservation area affecting the address. Then confirm with North Northamptonshire Council, which holds the definitive register for North Northamptonshire and can tell you whether a specific tree is covered. If you need the result in writing — for a sale, a quote or a planning application — the paid report sets out the checks for one address in a dated PDF.
Are trees in North Northamptonshire conservation areas protected?
Yes. Trees in a conservation area are protected without needing a Tree Preservation Order, and you must normally give the council six weeks' written notice before pruning or felling one. North Northamptonshire Council had published 82 conservation areas to the national dataset as of 30 July 2026, so this is often the protection that applies where no TPO shows up.
