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 householder applications
How this application type works
Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

Notification of intent to Fell No. 16 Trees and carry out Tree Surgery Works to No. 9 Trees within a Conservation Area. T1 to 10 - Leylandii and T11,12 & 25 - Hazel. These need to taken out completely. They have gone "wild" since the previous owner died in 2022 and when we moved in in late 2025. Also they are entwined with bramble and ivy from next door, Strangway Cottage. Maybe Red Robin and Hazel. I would like to re-plant the Hazel as there are a couple of Squirels in the garden. T13 & 14 - Leylandii. I'm not sure if these will stay or go! I need to see how the garden looks with the removal of other trees before a final decision is made. If we can say they are to be felled and I can cover one job with one application. Again, potentially replaced with Red Robins. T15 to 22 - Leylandii. These currently cover my "composting" area and these need to be just trimmed back. T 23 I think needs to be removed as this has again gone wild and towered to almost 40 feet tail! T 24 - Red Robin. This has again exploded in size of the past few years. I just need this bringing back under controll where I don't need the services of a tree surgeon to look after it. I already have a Conference Pear tree ready to be planted in the garden and would like further fruit trees and bushes too.
