2) Prior to the commencement of development, a scheme shall be submitted for written approval by the Local Planning Authority setting out the details of the materials to be used for the external walls and roof. The development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved scheme.

Reason: To protect the visual amenities of the building and the character and appearance of the conservation area.

3) Prior to the commencement of development a scheme setting out measures for protecting all trees, shrubs and other natural features during construction work shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

for trees and shrubs the fencing shall follow a line 1.0m outside the furthest extent of the crown spread, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority;

for other natural features along a line to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Such fencing shall be maintained during the course of the works on the site. No unauthorized access or placement of goods, fuels or chemicals, soil or other materials shall take place inside the fenced area.
