Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Front Garden Tree 1 – Ash (Fraxinus spp.) Pollard the Ash tree located on the right-hand side of the front boundary - to be pollarded back to the previous pollard points (approximately 1 metre at maximum). Remove all major deadwood. This is to maintain good tree health and management. Back Garden Tree 2 – Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) Fell the Holm Oak to ground level due to extensive damage caused by the tree's root system to the adjacent brick boundary wall. Photographic evidence of the damage is included within the attachment. The extent of the structural damage indicates that retaining the tree is not a reasonable option, as the roots are continuing to compromise the integrity of the boundary wall. Drill and treat the stump with an approved herbicide to prevent regrowth and encourage decomposition. Tree 3 – Apple (Malus spp.) Reduce the crown by approximately 1 metre and carry out a 50% crown thinning. Remove all major deadwood. Prune and reshape the crown to improve the tree's form and ongoing management. This is to maintain good tree health and management

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.
