• 1. The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice.

Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.

REASON: the site lies within an area not designated for development and the creation of a separate dwelling would be contrary to this. The application does not propose to create separate units of accommodation within the site and has not been considered as such.

• 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2012 (or any Order revoking and/or re-enacting that Order with or without modification), no fences, gates, walls or other means of enclosure shall be erected or placed within the curtilage of any dwelling house forward of any wall of that dwelling house which fronts onto a highway, without the prior written approval of the Department. Reason: To control development in the interests of the amenities of the surrounding area.
• 4. Prior to the occupation of any part of the hereby approved ancillary accommodation the existing opening as shown in red on drawing 2A is required to be blocked off by the creation of a sod bank at a height to match the sod banking either side of the existing entrance and this is to be retained thereafter.

Reason: To ensure all parking provision is provided by the existing garaging and hardstanding associated with Ballamin Cottage as a single dwelling house.

• 5. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2012 (or any Order revoking and/or re-enacting that Order with or without modification) no extension, enlargement or other alteration of the dwelling(s) hereby approved, other than that expressly authorised by this approval, shall be carried out, without the prior written approval of the Department.
