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 prior approval applications
How this application type works
Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

Leys Hill Lodge Leys Hill Frome Somerset BA11 2JZ
T 413 - Corsican Pine - Dismantle and fell. This tree is leaning heavily towards the house and could cause significant damage to two buildings if it uprooted. This tree was assessed by a qualified arboriculturist using the QTRA methodology of tree risk assessment and it was calculated to have a risk of harm in the region of 1/30,000 per annum. The crown of the tree could be reduced but that would adversely impact the appearance of the tree. Another problem with that approach is that the tree would have a similar risk of harm if assessed after the crown reduction. In the light of these considerations, I think that the best form of action is to fell the tree. The remaining trees are less of a risk to the house and removing this tree will reduce competition for the others in the vicinity, and so in the long-term the adjacent trees will benefit from the removal of this particular tree.
