The development shall thereafter be carried out in accordance with the approved details.

Reason: To control the appearance of the building in the interests of the visual amenities of the locality. (Section 12, NPPF)
4) No development above slab level shall take place until a landscaping scheme to include all hard and soft landscaping and a scheme for landscape maintenance for a period of five years following the implementation of the landscaping scheme have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved scheme shall be implemented by the end of the full planting season immediately following the completion and/or first use of any separate part of the development (a full planting season means the period from October to March).

Reason: To ensure an acceptable standard of landscaping. (Sections 12 and 15, NPPF)
5) No building shall be occupied 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) Visibility splays shall be provided at the junction of the access with the public highway before the development is brought into use. The minimum dimensions to provide the required splay lines shall be 2.4m measured along the centre line of the proposed access from its junction with the channel of the public highway and 25m measured from the centre line of the proposed access along the line of the channel of the public highway. The required vision splays shall for the perpetuity of the development remain free of any obstruction to visibility for 600mm above the adjacent carriageway level.
Reason: To provide adequate visibility between the existing highway and the proposed access(es), and to make the access(es) safe and convenient for the traffic which is likely to use it (them).
7) Before the development is brought into use, the proposed development shall be carried out and completed in all respects in accordance with the access siting and layout illustrated on the approved plan No.PL-L101 Rev 05 and defined by this permission and, notwithstanding the provision of the Town and Country Planning General Permitted Development Order 2015, (or any Order revoking or re-enacting that Order) there shall be no variation without the prior approval in writing of the Local Planning Authority.

Arrangements shall be made for surface water drainage from the site to be intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge into the highway.
Reason: To avoid the carriage of mud or other extraneous material or surface water from the site into the highway so as to safeguard the interest of highway safety.

The approved Construction Management Plan associated with the development of the site shall be adhered to throughout the development process.

Reason: In the interests of safety, protecting the amenity of local land uses, neighbouring residents and highway safety.
10) Part A: 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 contain the following components: 
 
a method statement for the investigation of any archaeological remains that will be affected by the development

For the digital archive this will include confirmation of the intention to deposit with a CoreTrustSeal certified repository dedicated to storing archaeological archives. 
the publication report text has been prepared for submission to a recognised archaeological journal, or an approved final archaeological report is submitted for inclusion in the Historic Environment Record, and this has been confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority
