Sheffield Street Tree Data

General

This website was created and is maintained by Andy Greenwood, an arboriculturist currently working at Streets Ahead.

This site is in response to requests for an updated version of the mothballed Sheffield Tree Map project.

For those interested, the development of this website involved the following technologies:

Leaflet
Used for map creation and interactive layers.

QGIS
Determining accurate tree data for each Ward.

Apache ECharts
Visualizing tree inventory and replant data.

Main Map

The map displays the location and approximate measures for all street trees captured under Streets Ahead. The data was last refreshed on 07/05/2025.

Filtering: Filter by Genus and Family to visualize city-wide distribution.
Planting Years: Added specifically to help Tree Wardens find and monitor establishing trees.
Provenance: Includes cultivars and nativars.
Special Value: A work in progress featuring heritage sites and war memorials.

Note: Each tree is assigned a location via Mapbox Geocoding; please be aware of minor inaccuracies in property numbers.

Tree Wardens: When notifying Streets Ahead of concerns, please include the ID from the Tree Information panel.

Please be aware that not every roadside tree is mapped under Streets Ahead, particularly in rural areas.

Tree Inventory Charts

A work in progress...

This section provides a breakdown of street trees by species, genus, and family for both the city and individual electoral wards.

Planting seasons represent trees planted during the Streets Ahead contract (October 1st – March 31st).

Special thanks to Christine King of the Sheffield Street Tree Partnership for her assistance with data cleanup and analysis.
