Trees outside woods (TOWs) provide a wide range of benefits to society. However, these are often not recognised or valued, which can lead to poor management decisions. This report sets out to address that issue by reviewing the evidence of the benefits, the disbenefits, and the economic value of TOWs. This first section of the report defines the context of this review, provides a framework for assessment, and briefly outlines the content and structure of the rest of the report.
