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 lawful development applications

How this application type works

A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

    5 Harrison Road Edinburgh EH11 1EG

    The land behind 5 Harrison Road has been in use as my garden since 1984 when I developed it (i.e. from when I purchased the house). It is a fenced-in plot of land similar to all other garden plots in the street. It contains mature plants, trees and lawn. There are no structures (except the fencing) on the land. I understand that the garden appears on the council mapping since that time.
