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 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.

    104 COLERAINE ROAD, BLACKHEATH, LONDON, SE3 7NZ

    Fell three Leylandii trees. Originally planted as a screen but too vigorous and fast growing, and close to our boundary. Also they grow on a wartime landfill tip (the spoil from our air raid shelter) and may become unstable now they are so tall. We have planted other trees (apple, pear and birch) close by and the Leylandii now stop these thriving. Trunk circumference 71cm each, about 15 years old.. Also works to reduce the Bay tree up to 50%, so that we can maintain it as a round shape that we can reach easily. Trunk circumference 61cm, about 30 years old.

    Mountain Ash to the front garden. The leaves and foliage to approx 1/3 of the tree have turned brown and shrivelled rapidly with the foliage given a scorched burned appearance. Please see two photos: the first taken 10.07.26 and the other today 27.07.26. demonstrating the rapid decline of the foliage. Upon initial investigation we believe the trunk to have contracted a bacterial infection. This is one of three. - to remove the dead infected areas. This work should be undertaken in a timely fashion to prevent further spread of the disease.
