There's a lot of concern in some places about the effects of planting near rock art panels, much of which was done before 1979. The problem isn't only the effects of the roots and stuff, but also wht happens if a tree falls, gouging out a big chunk of soil, or what happens during deliberate harvestng, where the industrial machinery used can easily wreck the surroundings.
Very few Rock Art sites are scheduled so you can do what you like without the written permission .

I'd imagine in England more are scheduled than aren't. EH went through a phase of scheduling 'historic landscapes' which included enclosures, settlements, cairnfields in addition to rock art.
