2. No development shall take place until an additional and composite scheme of landscaping has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority, notwithstanding any such detail which may have previously been submitted.  The scheme shall indicate all existing trees and hedgerows on the land; detail any to be retained, together with measures for their protection in the course of development; indicate the types and numbers of trees and shrubs to be planted, their distribution on site, those areas to be seeded, paved or hard landscaped; and detail any changes of ground level or landform.

Reason: In the interests of the amenity of the area and in accordance with Policy No.GN5 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.

3. All planting comprised in the approved details of landscaping shall be carried out concurrently with the construction of the extended stable building hereby approved. Any trees or plants which within a period of 10 years from the completion of the development die, are removed or become seriously damaged or diseased shall be replaced in the next planting season with others of similar size and species, unless the Local Planning Authority gives written consent to any variation.

Reason:  In the interest of the appearance of the locality and in accordance with Policy No GN5 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.

4. That the business use of the extended stables shall only be in association with the breeding of horses and not at all for any livery use. 

Reason: Any secondary use could have implications for additional and more regular traffic to and from the site whjch the Local Planning Authority would have to consider. Also to accord with policy EP8 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review .

5. A scheme for the containment, storage and disposal of manure, including the frequency of the removal of the manure, shall be submitted to the Local Planning Authority for approval within one month of the date of this permission and implemented two months after its approval by the Local Planning Authority.

Reason: This  scheme was originally intended under the scope of planning permission 03/640 and has not been implemented ; to prevent pollution of any water course and reduce the impact upon neighbouring residential properties; to accord with policies EP8 & EP17 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.

6. All external materials shall match those on the existing building.

Reason:  In the interests of the visual amenity of the area in general and the existing building in particular and in accordance with Policy Nos. GN5 & EP8 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.

7. That the construction of the access details, including ancillary landscaping, as indicated on plan no. P930.09 Rev. A shall be implemented within 2 months of the date of this planning permission. In addition, the remainder of the frontage hedgerow within the applicant’s ownership shall be pruned back to and maintained at one metre in height in perpetuity with the initial pruning exercise undertaken in conjunction with the residue of the access works.

Reason: The access works previously required under the scope of permission no. 03/0640 have not yet been implemented and remain necessary as the development permitted under 03/640 has commenced and is on going; the works are necessary in the interests of highway safety and visual amenity and to accord with policies EP8 and GN5 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.   

8. That condition no. 4 to planning permission 03/0640 is re-iterated in that the requisite works have not been discharged to the satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority; the works shall be undertaken in a material to be agreed with the Local Planning Authority within 2 months of the this decision notice.

Reason: The works are necessary to ensure the creation of an acceptable hard surfaced access to the site in the interests of visual amenity and highway safety, and to accord with the provisions of GN5 & EP8 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.

9. That condition no.11 attached to planning permission 03/640 remains in force and is applicable to the continued use of the sand paddock in conjunction with the extended stables afforded by this planning permission.

Reason: In the interests of visual amenity in the locality and to accord with policy GN5 of the Adopted Chorley Borough Local Plan Review.
