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 five 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.

    The project is to redevelop the old Wash House into a Scriptorium. The Scriptorium will be a space where a library of books will be stored, a place for reading, studying and writing. The space will be used for the applicant?s own office activities. It is noted that books of value will be retained in an alternative secure location. The works require upgrades to the building fabric to preserve the building, whilst also making it a habitable space. There is also the proposal to include for a singular roof light to the south pitch of the roof, and the incorporation of external grilles for the intake and extract of the proposed MVHR unit.
