Trees

London wouldn’t be London without its trees and Richmond wouldn’t be its jewel in the crown without its urban forest.

The Tree Section is responsible for the management of some 14,000 street trees and trees in parks and open spaces. We also advise on trees covered by Tree Preservation Orders, those in Conservation Areas and where trees are affected by development

Tree management policy

The key principles for the management decisions relating to council owned trees can be viewed in the Council-owned tree management policy.
