Cutting the roots of any tree is generally ill-advised as it may affect the tree's health and stability. If a tree is covered by a Tree Preservation Order, or if it stands in a Conservation Area an application will be required before root pruning can take place. Please view the Tree Works Application form (this is an external hyperlink). For assistance with completing the application form please refer to the accompanying Guidance Notes (this is an external hyperlink).  more
