New Six Year Contract With English Heritage

English Heritage cares for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and sites, bringing the story of England to life for over 10 million people each year. Alongside their medieval castles and Roman forts stand an estimated 38,000 specimen trees and 160 hectares of woodland. The distribution of these trees is diverse, ranging from individuals and small groups to designed historic landscapes containing thousands of trees. Some of these have heritage significance in their own right as a result of great age, botanical significance or due to connections with historic people or events.

Building on our relationship with the Trust dating back to 2018 when TEP was engaged to undertake a review of their tree management practices and systems, we are delighted to commence a new 6 year contract to inspect trees across their northern estate. The portfolio covers 73 sites including the enchanting Belsay Hall and Gardens with its medieval castle, and thirty acres of outstanding gardens; the splendid 13th century Pickering Castle set in the heart of the North York Moors National Park; and the remains of the forts, towers, turrets and towns that once kept watch over the Hadrian’s Wall.

The work will be delivered using Alloy, Causeway Technologies connected asset management software, which was adopted by the Trust in 2022 to replace their outdated method of managing tree risk. The software can be hosted on either a tablet computer or mobile phone and is highly configurable, providing a high level of flexibility. Any arboricultural work required after the survey can also be managed, tracked and recorded through Alloy as an end-to-end, fully digital process.
