We will only remove trees that are dead, dying, diseased or dangerous.  Whilst not an immediate danger, these trees have proven to be a cause of ongoing damage to property, and as such are likely to pose an increasing risk over the coming years.

We would like to have your comments on these proposals. You can do this by completing our consultation or by submitting a representation in writing to:

Tree Team, Town Hall, Main Road, Romford, RM1 3BB

Email: trees@havering.gov.uk

Please make sure you quote the unique reference number for the relevant tree and your representation arrives no later than 14 March 2026.

The trees in question can be found by visiting Havering Council's Report an Issue with a Tree - Starter Portal  and using the location as the reference.
