Buildings, and particularly roofs and the spaces underneath them, are frequently used as roosting sites by bats. Bats and their 'roost' sites are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and the Conservation of Habitats & Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), the latter of which deems them a European Protected Species. It is a criminal offence to damage or destroy a roost (even if bats are not occupying the roost at the time), to deliberately kill or injure a bat, disturb a bat in its roost, or intentionally or recklessly obstruct access to a bat roost. Planning consent for a development does not provide a defence against prosecution under these acts.
Any removal of roof and wall coverings including roof tiles, slates, hanging tiles, timber boarding, timber window frames, soffit boxes and facia boards shall be carried out carefully by hand. If bats or any sign of bats such as an accumulation of droppings are encountered at any stage of work, work must cease immediately and advice sought from an appropriately licenced bat ecologist on how to proceed lawfully. All contractors working on site should be made aware of the advice and provided with the contact details of a relevant ecological consultant.
|
| Before the first occupation of the building hereby permitted the rooflight windows to the south facing elevation shall be fitted with Pilkington Level 4 obscured glazing or equivalent and shall be permanently retained in that condition thereafter.
Reason - To protect the amenities of adjoining/nearby properties from unacceptable overlooking/loss of privacy and represent quality design in accordance with policy SWDP21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan.
|
| The development hereby permitted shall not be occupied at any time other than for purposes ancillary to the residential use of the dwelling known as Ashley Cottage. The development shall not be used as an independent self contained dwelling separate from the dwelling known as Ashley Cottage.
Reason - To preserve the amenities of the locality in accord with Policy SWDP21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan |
