Hedgerow Regulations
- The Hedgerow
Regulations 1997 allow us to protect important hedgerows, by
controlling their removal through a system of notification – if you
want to remove a hedgerow you should write in stating the reasons
for removal with a plan showing the hedgerow in question. You
should note that the regulations do not apply to hedgerows that are
within or on a garden boundary.
