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 heritage and listed buildings applications
How this application type works
Heritage applications concern listed buildings and conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for works, inside or out, that affect the special interest of a listed building, and carrying out such works without consent is a criminal offence. The council weighs harm to the heritage asset against any public benefit of the proposal.

Works will include: Temporary removal of roof tiles. Dismantling of chimneys to below roof height. Repair and replacement of defective structural elements where necessary. Reinstatement to the original form and appearance. All works will be undertaken by specialist historic-building trades people using traditional materials and techniques.

Reclaimed bricks are available to rebuild the chimneys as replicas; any additional materials will be carefully sourced to match. Lime mortar will be used for masonry works, with traditional methods for timber repairs. Original timbers will be retained wherever possible, with like-for-like replacements used only where necessary. No alterations are proposed to windows, doors, or the building footprint.
