Parks, leisure and the arts St John Street Conservation Area

Trees

With the exception of St John's Gardens, the conservation area is fairly intensely built up, leaving little scope for further tree planting. There are some trees, however, in private gardens and along the street. The planting of suitable species in appropriate locations will be encouraged, as will the planting of replacements before the older trees need felling.

Anyone wishing to fell, prune or uproot a tree covered by a Tree Preservation Order or in a Conservation Area should seek permission first from us before undertaking any work to the tree.
