Site constraints 3

Protected tree 11 m away: The Northumberland County Council (Land at 90 Edgehill, Darras Hall, Ponteland) Tree Preservation Order 2009 (no. 8 of 2, order PKT0064
3 protected trees within 15 m. Named in a tree preservation order: work to it, its roots included, needs the council's consent first.
Root protection areas reach up to 15 m from a large tree, so an extension or new foundations this close usually needs a tree survey. Only some councils publish their single trees, and a position can be approximate: the order at the council is the definitive record, and no tree shown is not proof there is none.
