In the event that the arena approved is no longer used or required for equestrian activities, the arena and its associated structures shall be removed and the ground restored to its former condition within 12 months of the date the use ceased. Reason: The arena has been permitted solely in conjunction with the applicants existing use and its subsequent retention without that need would result in an unwarranted feature in the countryside contrary to Strategic Policy 4 and General Policy 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. 5. For the avoidance of doubt there shall be no permanent siting or any external storage of any horse jumps, horse boxes or any other associated equestrian paraphernalia within field numbers 214281 & 214282 as shown on drawing number 24 1816 01, dated received 30th May 2024. Reason: The application has been assessed on the change of use of the fields for general exercise and grazing only and not for any other use. In the interest of ensuring no overspill of equestrian equipment over the fields in the interest of visual amenity. 6. There shall be no external lighting of the extended arena unless full lighting plan details have been first submitted to and approved in writing by the Department, such details shall include position of lights, level of illumination and cowl details. Any external lighting shall then only be installed in full accordance with the approved lighting plan and retained as such thereafter. Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and to ensure no harm to the dark skies. 7. The existing trees and hedges shall be retained on site. Any retained tree or hedge which is removed or becomes seriously damaged or diseased shall be replaced by a similar species, of a size to be first approved in writing by the Department, during the next planting season or in accordance with a programme of replacement to be agreed in writing with the Department. Reason: To safeguard the appearance of the development and the surrounding area. 8. The planting as shown in drawing No. 24 1816 04, dated received 30th May 2024 shall be planted within the first available planting season following the first use of the building approved, and in the event any of those plants die within 5 years of planting they shall be replanted with native species and all shall be retained and maintained thereafter. Reason: The application included additional planting and this would assist in further visual mitigation to the stable in the interest of visual amenities of the area and impact of the building in the landscape.
