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 lawful development applications
How this application type works
A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.

MOUNTACRE CLOSE, SYDENHAM HILL, LONDON, SE26 6SX
FRONT: ONE Laurel S1 FELL. FRONT: ONE Maple T1 Maple FELL Reason: The large shrub and tree have been implicated in subsidence of rear left projection, Category 0, negligible, of the neighbouring property. The County of London (Lewisham No.2) Tree Preservation Order, 1957 (Dome Hill Park, Sydenham Hill) Informative: it is greatly appreciated that the management of the trees is sensitive to the wooded landscape of Sydenham Hill within the Upper Sydenham Special Character Area. As the trees are considered in the Arboriculture Survey to be younger than the property c.1964, they are unlikely to have been growing at the time the area TPO was made in 1957. Therefore while they are within the TPO area A1, they are likely not to be technically protected by the TPO.
