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.
In Nottinghamshire, Tree Preservation Orders are handled by the local councils rather than a single county body. Nottingham City Council covers the city as a unitary authority, while the surrounding boroughs and districts each hold their own records for their areas.
Start with a postcode search above for an indication from available public data, then confirm with the council that covers the property.
Depending on the address, the relevant authority could be:
- Nottingham City Council for the city.
- Broxtowe, Rushcliffe or Gedling in the south and around the city.
- Mansfield and Ashfield to the north-west.
- Newark and Sherwood, and Bassetlaw, to the north and east.
Each maintains its own TPO records, so what is published — and how — differs from one to the next.
The available public data is incomplete and inconsistent between councils, so a check here is guidance only. For a reliable answer on a Nottinghamshire property, confirm with the relevant Local Planning Authority.
Ask the council's tree officer about both TPOs and conservation area status for the specific address, and get written confirmation before any tree work begins.
A manual protected-tree check is worth considering where the public data is unclear, where a property is close to a council boundary, or where the work or transaction carries real cost. It means someone reviewing the relevant Nottinghamshire council's sources for the exact address and confirming what they find.
Relevant authority: Nottingham City Council and the district/borough councils of Nottinghamshire.

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.
