Proposal
T1 mature Magnolia - Remove. The tree has vastly outgrown the domestic garden and spans the entire width. Request not to replace due to lack of suitable space. T2 little Holly - Reduce and reshape the tree which is currently merged within the Magnolia. Estimate reduction by a third removing 4m, remaining 2m.

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.
