Countryside hedgerows
Rural hedgerows provide habitats for animals and connect humans to history.
By law, we protect rural hedgerows in South Staffordshire from unnecessary removal.
For detailed information about hedgerows in the countryside, please visit the GOV.UK website.
Before you remove a hedgerow in the countryside, you must submit an application for hedgerow removal notice. You can apply online using the planning portal website or download an application form.
If you are not applying online, you can email your application to trees@sstaffs.gov.uk or post it to:
