Trees and hedges

Report a dead, dangerous or vandalised tree, our planting scheme and pruning cycle and what to do about trees and hedges blocking public footpaths and highways.

Work that we will not carry out in relation to problems with trees and hedges in Croydon.

Conservation areas are areas of special architectural or historical interest whose character should be preserved. Landscape features, including trees, contribute to the character of an area and special provision is made for their protection.

A tree preservation order (TPO) is issued by the council to protect trees and woodlands.

Problems between neighbours can occur if a hedge is allowed to grow unchecked. The council may be able to help.

Trees for Streets aims to support the planting of more than 250,000 trees over the next 10 years.
