| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| The works to which this Listed Building Consent relates must be commenced before the expiration of three years beginning with the date of this consent. Reason: To conform with the requirements of Section 18 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. |
| Unless where required or allowed by other conditions attached to this permission/consent, the development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the information (including details on the proposed materials) provided on the application form and the following plans/drawings/documents – Design and Access and Heritage Statement - Nick Joyce, July 2025 Location Plan 2455-01 Survey Plans and Elevations 2455-100 Proposed Plans and Elevations. Reason: To define the permission in accordance with Policy SWDP1 and SWDP2 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework. |
| Prior to its/their installation as part of the development hereby approved, details of the following shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority:- - external joinery details along with architectural details of the proposed external finishes, heads, sills, position in wall reveal and any surrounding dressings (elevational drawings at a minimum scale of 1:20 and vertical sectional drawings at minimum scale of 1:2); - window sections; - details of external doors/garage doors including information on finish. Reason: To protect, conserve and enhance the significance of heritage assets and to ensure that the new materials are in keeping with the surroundings and/or represent quality design in accordance with policies SWDP 6, SWDP21 and SWDP24 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan. |
| The applicant is reminded that work should avoid disturbance to nesting birds. Nesting birds are protected under the 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act (as amended) and the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000. The main nesting season lasts approximately from March to September, so work should take place outside these dates if at all possible. However, birds can nest at any time and the site including any buildings should ideally be checked for their presence immediately before work starts. Planning Consent or Listed Building Consent for a development does not provide a defence against prosecution under this act. |
| Positive and Proactive Statement. No problems have arisen in dealing with this application. The planning application sought an acceptable form of development consistent with the requirements of relevant policies and material considerations. No amendments or alterations were therefore required and no further positive or proactive action was deemed necessary. |
