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.

FLAT 1A, 66 BROMLEY ROAD, LONDON, SE6 2TW
FRONT ONE Ash tree(T1)(ht. 12m) CROWN LIFT to 4m above ground level. CROWN REDUCE RADIUS by 2m from 6 m to 4m on all compass points. Height to be maintained Reason: Branches encroaching towards house windows and roof gutter. Also encroaching onto the neighbours front garden parking area as well as the two footpaths at front of house. Informative A: Crown lifting should be minimized in mature or old trees if possible, since it can increase the probability of stemfailure. If it cannot be avoided, as in this instance, it should involve the removal of secondary branches or branch shortening rather than removal of branches back to the stem. Informative B: The sensitive management of the trees is greatly appreciated for landscape amenity, urban forest canopy to mitigate climate change, wellbeing, wildlife and environmental benefits. Informative C: Please create habitat log piles, and a linear 'dead hedge' for wildlife and biodiversity with arisings, wherever possible.
