What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About householder applications
How this application type works
Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

Tag 1 - White Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) - Remove stem from bole to leave a 2m bole as habitat. Reason - Partial collapse of severely decayed part of tree. Remaining stem supported by very decayed bole. Risk of collapse. Area only open to site user and trespassers. Tree marked with orange paint. Tag 2 - Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) - Remove tree. Reason - Risk of collapse. Adjacent to access path to club sites. Tree marked with orange paint. Tag 3 - Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) - Reduce height to 1.5m to retain as habitat whilst removing risk of collapse across the path. Reason - This 6m bolling is the remains of a previously reduced tree. Given the lean towards the access path and the unknown level of decay at the base, there is a risk of collapse before the next tree survey.

One mature Buddleia (Buddleja davidii) located in the front garden of the property (although Buddleia is generally classified as a shrub rather than a tree, notification is being submitted because the plant has developed multiple substantial stems, with a stem diameter exceeding 75mm) - Fell and remove the Buddleia completely, including the main stems at ground level, to improve the appearance of the site and allow replacement planting with more appropriate ornamental shrubs and plants. The proposed replacement planting will enhance the appearance of the property frontage and preserve the character and amenity of the conservation area.
