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.

2A Wolseley Road, Hornsey, London, N8 8RP
The tree in question is a smoke bush, which has been left to get tall and leggy. That’s causing the tree to lean, it also has a fungus which looks like honey fungus or white bracket fungus. It’s has a split in the main trunk and sounds hollow when tapped. There are 2 options for the work to be carried out. Option one reduce tree by 25% and remove limb that is really leaning and try and get to grow more evenly. Options 2 fell the tree and remove stump and roots.

10 Wolseley Road, Hornsey, London, N8 8RP
The proposal is to remove a small wild cherry tree (prunus avium) that is growing in the front garden, next to the gate. The reason for removal is that the tree is competing with a larger Magnolia tree, which is the main feature of the front garden. Having spoken with tree surgeons, we are of the view that there is not sufficient space to accommodate both trees, and that reducing or reshaping the tree is unlikely to result in an attractive and healthy-looking tree. It is also close to the garden wall so is likely to cause damage to the wall as it grows larger. The tree would be replaced by a range of planting, including roses, evergreen shrubs, and climbing plants along the wall.

There is a tree in the back garden I believe it’s a type of maple T1 , but not 100%. Its overdue a reduction. I've suggested around 2m off the top and match the sides to create a compound shape. It’s blocking out a lot of light to the end of the garden and is quite close to the buildings at the back.
