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.

Informative A: removal of maple T6 is questioned when no Acer roots were found in root analysis in either TP/BH1 or TP/BH2, soil is not desiccated in either TP/BH and no drains report. Soil plasticity (volume change potential) is low to intermediate. Informative B: As foundations are shallow at 0.6m an engineering solution is encouraged for long term stabilisation of no.42 and tree retention, such as underpinning or flexible, copper impregnated root barrier. Informative C: replacement tree planting is encouraged especially in view of the goodwill financial contribution from environmental services to replace lost trees, wildlife habitat and biodiversity, suggest replacement tree and hedge planting with NHBC low water demand species such as: holly, hazel, elder, fig, Gleditsia, laburnum, magnolia, mulberry, birch. Informative D: thank you for retaining other trees for amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change. Informative E: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
