Decision & conditions
Planning conditions
- This decision relates only to the plans and documents identified below: • Application for prior notification of proposed demolition, received 23/12/2025 • Heritage Impact Assessment/Statement, received 23/12/2025 • Bat Potential Roosting Feature Assessment by Kite Ecology, March 2024 • Drawing No’s. 9466 E01, LP01. P01 ad PSP01
- It is recommended that the applicant be informed that all British bat species are European Protected Species by virtue of their listing under Annex IV of EC Directive 92/43/EEC (‘The Habitats Directive’). This Directive has been transposed into British Law under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017. British bats are also protected under Schedule 5 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) (as amended). It is recommended that the applicant and contractors be informed of the possibility of encountering bats unexpectedly during works. If bats are encountered on site works should stop immediately an NRW should be contacted (Natural Resources Wales, - General Enquiries: enquiries@naturalresourceswales.gov.uk or 0300 065 3000 Mon-Fri, 8am - 6pm) a licence may then need to be applied for from NRW. Licences are not automatically granted by virtue of a valid planning consent and it may be possible that the necessary licence application may be refused.
- Due to the age of the building, there is potential that asbestos containing materials (ACM) will be present within the building. It is the responsibility of owners/developers to ensure safe development particularly if any asbestos is present. The existing building should be assessed for asbestos materials prior to demolition. ACM Footnote: Asbestos cement sheet and textured coating (artex) materials may be removed by non-licensed contractors, but should be done in accordance with the guidance: https://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/guidance/a14.pdf HSE - Asbestos: Asbestos essentials Most other asbestos materials must be removed by a contractor licensed by the Health and Safety Executive. If at any stage during the refurbishment process asbestos is suspected, the work should stop immediately, and the material should be investigated.
