6 Cumberton Road, Tottenham, London, N17 7PA
Proposal
One tree (tree 1 in sketch) is a 6m loquat tree. We wish to crown thin by 10% and remove the lowest hanging branches. Please see sketch which marks the crown reduction and branch uplift in red. We'd like to remove the lowest branches as it is below standard head height which limits usage of the garden. We would like to thin for general maintenance and allow more light into the garden. The 6m height will be maintained. The tree is located in the rear garden as identified on the sketch provided. We also wish to completely remove a bay tree (tree 2 in sketch) in the front garden on the border with 4 Cumberton Road (who has also agreed to the removal). The tree is invasive and will cause subsistence to the house, as it is growing into the houses. Additionally, it blocks light to the houses. This will be replaced in the same location with a privet hedge to bring it in line with the conservation area requirements. The intention is for this to grow to a height in line with the other hedges on the front of the properties.

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.

Flat A, 16 Mount View Road, Hornsey, London, N4 4HX
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.
