Understanding Crowborough and Its Trees
Crowborough is one of the highest towns in Sussex, and that brings its own challenges for tree care. The elevation means trees here face different wind exposure compared to lower-lying areas of the county. The town’s position near Ashdown Forest means many properties have mature, established trees that reflect the woodland character of the surrounding landscape.
We’ve worked across Crowborough, from town centre properties to more rural locations on the outskirts. Whether it’s established trees that have outgrown their space, gardens backing onto woodland areas, or tighter residential plots where access needs planning, as an experienced tree surgeon in Crowborough, we understand the local conditions and what each job requires.
Tree Surgeon in Crowborough
If you’re near Ashdown Forest or in a conservation area, there are rules about what you can and can’t do with trees. As a qualified tree surgeon in Crowborough, we’re familiar with Wealden District Council‘s requirements and can guide you through the application process for protected trees. If something’s covered by a TPO, we know how to handle the paperwork and keep everything above board.
Many properties in Crowborough have older, established trees that were planted long before recent housing developments. That often means dealing with mature specimens that need careful assessment and proper planning before any work begins.
