Proposal
Proposed works to T1 - to be removed as Ash dieback was observed and signs of failure. T2 Crown reduction. T3 and T4 removed. T5 and T8 are part of a hedge line that has not been maintained historically, a 50% reduction initially will help reduce these canopies. T7 and T8 are causing structural damage to garden wall and external pavement, these trees are to be kept and returned to a state of regular management rather than removal.

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.
