Conditions or Reasons:
1) The development hereby permitted shall begin not later than three years from the date of this permission.

Reason: To comply with Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.
2) All external works hereby permitted shall be carried out in materials to match as closely as possible in colour, type and texture, those of the existing building.

Reason: To safeguard the appearance of the completed development by ensuring that the development hereby permitted is finished externally with materials to match the existing building in the interests of the visual amenities of the locality.
(Section 12, NPPF)
3) The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out except in complete accordance with the details shown on the submitted plans, numbers: 113/01, 113/02, 113/03/A, 113/04/A, 113/05/A and 113/06/A.

Reason: To identify the approved plan/s and to avoid doubt.
4) No development shall take place until an archaeological written scheme of investigation (WSI), has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

The WSI shall include the following components:

method statements for the investigation of all archaeological remains present at the site
an outline strategy for post-excavation assessment, analysis and publication, including details of the timetable for each stage of the post-excavation works

The said development shall only be implemented in full accordance with the approved WSI and this condition shall only be fully discharged when:

all elements of the archaeological fieldwork have been undertaken and the date of completion has been confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority
the post-excavation assessment, analysis and final archaeological report has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This shall be done within 12 months of the date of completion of the archaeological fieldwork unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority
the preparation of the site archives (both physical and digital) for deposition at stores approved by the Local Planning Authority has been undertaken and confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. For the digital archive this will include confirmation of the intention to deposit with a CoreTrustSeal certified repository dedicated to storing archaeological archives.
the preparation of an archive report and the submission of a publication report (if applicable) have been undertaken and confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority, items 3, and 4 of Part B of this condition shall be completed within 2 years of the archaeological fieldwork date of completion.

This condition is pre-commencement as a failure to secure archaeological investigation in advance of development, to secure the long term future of the archive and to make the record of that work publicly available would be contrary to policy HE1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan 2015-2031 (adopted July 2021) and paragraph 205 of the National Planning Policy Framework that requires developers to record and advance of understanding of the significance of any heritage assets affected by development before they are lost (wholly or in part).

Reason: To safeguard any archaeological remains at the site in accorrdanc with Chapter 16 of the NPPF 2021 and Chapter 18 of the Central Bedfordshrie Local Plan 2015 - 2031 (approved 2021).
5) The development shall not be brought into use until the junction of the proposed vehicular access with the highway has been constructed in accordance with the approved details.

Reason: In order to minimise danger, obstruction and inconvenience to users of the highway and the premises.
6) There shall be no gates provided at the frontage of the site with the highway boundary.

Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and to avoid obstruction of the carriageway to the free flow of traffic.
7) Before the development is brought into use all on site vehicular areas shall be surfaced in accordance with the annotated details on the approved plan no. 113-06 rev A. The surfacing shall remain as permeable resin unless otherwise agreed in writing by the local planning authority.

Reason: To avoid the carriage of mud or other extraneous material or surface water from the site so as to safeguard the interest of highway safety and reduce the risk of flooding and to minimise inconvenience to users of the premises and ensure satisfactory parking of vehicles outside highway limits.
8) Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning General Permitted Development Order 1995, or any amendments thereto, the garage accommodation on the site and parking provision shall not be used for any purpose, other than as garage accommodation and parking provision unless permission has been granted by the Local Planning Authority on an application made for that purpose.

Reason: To retain off-street parking provision and thereby minimise the potential for on-street parking which could adversely affect the convenience of road users.
9) The turning space for vehicles illustrated on the approved Plan no.113-06 rev A shall be constructed before the development is first brought into use and
thereafter be retained unobstructed for the purpose of manoeuvring.

Reason:To enable vehicles to draw off, park and turn outside the highway limits thereby avoiding the reversing of vehicles on to the highway.
