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.

8, Flat 1, Middleton Grove, London, N7 9LU
I am the executor for the estate of the deceased owner of the flat. We are seeking permission to remove two trees which are highlighted in the attached photo from the street. The reason we believe this is necessary is that, as the photo from the garden shows, these trees are next to a brick perimeter wall. They are clearly damaging it and causing it to lean outwards, and it looks as if they will at some point destabilise it. I think they are some sort of cherry, but I hope you will be able to identify the species better than I can from the photos
