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.

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden: extensions, loft and garage conversions, porches, outbuildings and similar alterations within the boundary of the home. They cannot be used to create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. Councils aim to decide them within eight weeks, and immediate neighbours are usually notified and given a chance to comment.

  T1, T2 and T3 Ash: Fell to near-ground level without stump grinding, as this would risk damaging the roots of neighbouring trees within the G1. The trees show symptoms consistent with Ash Dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus), including crown thinning, deadwood, and progressive structural decline. Several stems are heavily entangled with neighbouring trees, causing ongoing bark damage and creating points of infection and decay. The interlocking crowns prevent normal movement, increase mechanical stress, and raise the likelihood of partial or whole-tree failure within falling distance of the property boundary and adjacent structures. Given the combination of ADB infection, mechanical stress from entanglement, and progressive bark damage, removal is the proportionate measure to manage foreseeable risk in accordance with NTSG principles. Replacement planting is proposed as follows: Two native, small-to-medium trees will be planted within the garden boundary ? Field Maple (Acer campestre) and Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia) ? each supplied in 10?12?L containers at a height of 1.5?1.75?m. Trees will be positioned to avoid conflict with buildings and the retained woodland canopy, staked and guarded, and maintained for a minimum of three years to ensure establishment.
