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.

3no. Oak (T1-T3 as specified in previous application (T/20/89093) and 1no. Oak (the fourth oak tree but designated oak in an earlier plan) - reduce by 2m to improve light available in a garden. The garden is not overlooked by any public areas as previously stated following a review by the local tree inspectors. The trees are becoming overpowering in the garden and reduction will improve the gardens aspect and have little impact on the health of the trees. The recommended reduction will maintain the trees to their surroundings. We have consulted Hands in Nature about this work.
