Proposal
To reduce the risk of further branch and limb failures within the crown of this tree, I would recommend that the Walnut (T1) has a crown reduction. The height of the tree should be reduced by 2m, the northern side of the crown by 2m, the eastern side of the crown by 3m, the southern side of the crown by 2m, and the Western side of the crown by 1.5m. Deadwood should also be removed from the crown whilst tree surgery operations are being carried out.
As published by the council, reference P/25/0990/2

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 trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
