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 full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

Pollard to a finished height of 9 metres of one Sweet Chestnut (wrongly identified as a Horse Chestnut in the application documents) the subject of Tree Preservation No 17 of 2009. Due to recent heavy winds and the weight (bearing chestnuts) two lower limbs have snapped out, leaving the tree out of balance with a quarter of the canopy missing and causing concern. Recommend: Pollard the tree to a finishing height of 9 metres approximately.
