6. Note to Applicant: This planning permission does not convey the right for the development to encroach over, under or on land which is not within your ownership, without the consent of the landowner.
7. Note to Applicant: The following ecological enhancements are recommended: - The rear landscaped area should be planted with flowering plants that will attract pollinators and be managed to benefit to wildlife. This area is suitable for a species rich grassland and the mix should be determined by the amount of sun available and the soil type. A seed mix similar to Emorsgate EH1 Hedgerow mixture may be suitable if this area is in shadow. - The narrow strip of land between the car parking areas would be suitable for a flowering row of plants such as lavender or privet. - A bat box or a swift nest box can be added to the two-storey building on site. - The Bat Conservation Trust recommends installing a bat brick/box at least 4 m above the ground, away from artificial light sources, sheltered from strong winds and exposed to the sun for part of the day, facing south, south-east or south-west. - Swift nest boxes are best positioned under the eaves or on walls facing north, northeast or north-west out of direct sunlight, five metres above the ground, with clear adjacent airspace so swifts can access them in a high-speed direct flight.
