Greenwood 4 Furze Hill Cromer Norfolk NR27 0HU
Proposal
Tree 1 - Multi-stemmed Sycamore, 20m high, overhanging house and patio, on unstable and eroded friable bank rising to east, 4m from 4 Furze Hill east boundary and 24m from highway. Risk of injury or damage from branch fall / collapse in high wind and saturated ground. Tree reduction to 1.5m monoliths suggested, followed by adjacent replanting with Holm Oak sapling to match understory. Tree 2 - Multi-stemmed Sycamore, 20m high, overhanging driveway, highway and telephone cables, 6m from 4 Furze Hill east boundary and 7m from highway. Large areas of dieback / dead branches evident in upper canopy, with history of shedding substantial limbs. Risk of injury or damage from sudden failure. Tree reduction to 3m monoliths suggested if removal of all dieback / diseased areas by crown reduction to remove overhanging hazard impractical, followed by adjacent replanting with Holm Oak sapling to match understory.

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.
