Once constructed, if the dwelling is no longer required or occupied by persons engaged in agriculture, in accordance with condition 4 above, it must be demolished and the ground returned to part of the surrounding fields. Reason: an exception to the general presumption against development is being made on the basis of agricultural need and should that need no longer be present, there is no justification for the dwelling and it should be removed. 6. All planting, seeding or turfing comprised in the approved details of landscaping must be carried out in the first planting and seeding seasons following the completion of the development or the occupation of the dwelling, whichever is the sooner. Any trees or plants which within a period of five years from the completion of the development die, are removed, or become seriously damaged or diseased must be replaced in the next planting season with others of a similar size and species.

No obstructions greater than 0.9m above the carriageway level should be present in the visibility splays. Reason: to protect the character and appearance of the area. 8. Prior to occupation of the development any driveway shall be surfaced in bound and stable material over a minimum distance of 5.0m back from the highway boundary.
