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 lawful development applications
How this application type works
A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

2025/2214 Granted
14 Skipworth Road, Hackney, London, E9 7JH
Rear garden: Holme oak (T1)- reduce branches over clients garden by 2.5m. Magnolia (T2)- reduce crown by up to 2m. Bay (T3)- reduce by 4m Lilac (T4)- reduce by 1.5m Cherry (T5)- cut down to 3m False acacia (T6)- reduce branches growing towards building back to previous cuts (2.5m off) Bird cherry (T7)- reduce by 1.5m Reason: most of the work is aimed at getting clearance from the building and allowing more light into the building. The bay has ganoderma, with a four-year old fruiting body. Sounding with a nylon mallet reveals significant hollowing. The client is keen to retain the tree, but a significant reduction is prescribed to reduce the risk of failure. The cherry that's being cut down to 3m is mostly dead, there are some live branches low down - most likely a case of managed decline.
