4. Note to applicant: The site photos do not show any potential bat roost features. The foundation for the extension appears to have been constructed. The garden has been completely cleared to bare earth, which is a net loss of biodiversity and contrary to DM11 and the NPPF (National Planning Policy Framework). Biodiversity enhancements will be required in accord with Local Plan policy DM 11 and NPPF (December 2024) paragraphs 187d and 192 b. A bat box and a swift nest box may be appropriate for this building. - 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. (https://www.bats.org.uk › our-work › putting-up-your-box) - 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. (https://www.swiftconservation.org/Nestboxes%26Attraction.htm ) - Flowering plants and shrubs should be added to the garden to provide resources for pollinators and seeds and fruits for birds.
