&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The [https://www.gov.uk/guidance/national-planning-policy-framework/annex-2-glossary National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) Annex 2: Glossary], published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities &amp;amp;amp; Local Government (MHCLG) in 2012, defines an ancient tree or veteran tree as: ‘A tree which, because of its age, size and condition, is of exceptional biodiversity, cultural or heritage value. All ancient trees are veteran trees. Not all veteran trees are old enough to be ancient, but are old relative to other trees of the same species. Very few trees of any species reach the ancient life-stage.’&lt;br /&gt;
