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.

Palace Gate House, Old Palace Yard, Richmond, TW9 1PD
T1 - Stone Pine Dimensions: Approx 18m Height, N12m, E6m, S8m, W2m. Proposed Works: Remove lowest limb back to the stem. Justification: The tree has a large over-extended lever arm growing to the north-west, roughly 12m in length. It protrudes well outside the line of the rest of the canopy and has been the subject of at least two previous applications, including one rejected by Richmond last year, showing this limb has been a concern to multiple separate arborists over a period of time. Recently a limb above it failed, came down and caused significant damage to the listed boundary wall to Old Palace Yard. The remaining lever arm sits above a busy public footpath with frequent historical tours passing through, a busy roadway and a run of car parking bays. Photographs from only two years ago show a noticeable flattening of the limb since, which adds to our concerns around end loading and mechanical stress at the union. With the failure we have been dealing with, there are no sufficient points left in the tree to brace from. On that basis we believe removal of the limb is the only suitable course of action, and given the target beneath it and the failure that has already occurred and no substantial reduction points.

T1- Ash tree- Remove and replace with Liquidambar tree. This tree has been a problem for many years. It grows adjacent to a street light on a busy road thus consuming and blocking the light for pedestrians & road users. it drops debris onto the footpath & road. The tree was last trimmed back in November 2023 and has now grown back over the footpath & road. There are branches breaking out and some panic growth visible. Suspicion that Ash dieback is present. The tree is covered in Ivy so the condition of the stem cannot be seen at this stage. The reason for the replanting of a Liquidambar tree is that it would have a nicer look on the road. T2- Small Nespola tree- Remove this tree. It doesn't add any benefit to the property or area and has been left to grow wild.
