Do you require permission from the local Council to fell a tree in your
own
garden? Is there preservation orders on some types of trees, or it is
every
tree? Just curious, as my neighbour is applying to Council, and wondered
if it was absolutely necessary. (Tree in question - huge Cedar)

Down here there is a presumption that permission should be sought if the
diameter of the tree is above a certain amount (30cm I think) or if you are
in a conservation area or a preservation order applies. but I think it
varies a good bit between local authorities.
