No Trees in the Street is a 1959 British crime thriller directed by J. Lee Thompson and starring Sylvia Syms, Herbert Lom and Melvyn Hayes. It was written by Ted Willis, from his 1948 stage play of the same name.^[1]

The film is set in the slums of London, and depicts the life of impoverished teenager Tommy, who becomes a criminal in an attempt at social mobility.

It is an example of British kitchen sink realism, but is mainly noted for its naturalistic depiction of slum life.
