NP/25/0727/NMA - Non-Material Amendment Approved

Proposal

Change Condition 9 to read Works to the roof or loft shall be undertaken outside the dates of 1st April to 30th September, unless a further bat survey has been conducted by a suitably experienced ecologist which demonstrates that breeding bats are not present at the site in the current year (subject to formal demonstration to the authority by the project ecologist that there are no nesting birds present at the time of any works carried out after March 1st ). Internal wall crevices shall not be blocked between 1st November and 31st March unless it has been possible to confirm bats are absent from the features. Reason: Under Section 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) it is an offence to kill or injure any wild bird, take, damage or destroy the nest of any wild bird while that nest is in use or being built. PCNPA Policy: In accordance with Policy 10 and 11 of the PCNPA LDP2, the Environment (Wales) Act 2016 and TAN 5. Data via plota.co.uk

Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
The park authority decides applications here. Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.
Landscape, scenic beauty and wildlife carry great weight, and major development is only allowed in exceptional circumstances.
Agricultural land, grade 2
Best and most versatile land (grades 1, 2 and 3a). Source: the Predictive Agricultural Land Classification Map (Defra and Natural England, 2025; the Welsh Government's Predictive ALC Map 2 in Wales), a model rather than a site survey. A site survey can differ.
Where development of farmland is needed, policy prefers poorer land over the best and most versatile (grades 1, 2 and 3a). Three sources: Natural England's post-1988 field surveys, which are definitive where they exist; the Defra predictive map for England (2025) and the Welsh Government predictive map, modelled from the soil map with 3a and 3b split; and the 1970s provisional map, which planners and other services still show, coarser and with grade 3 undivided. Where the provisional and predicted grades disagree, treat the predicted grade as the current estimate and expect an application to carry its own survey.
Radon affected area, class 5
An estimated 10 to 30% of homes reach the radon action level. Indicative for the 1 km square, which takes the highest class found in it; a radon test gives the answer for a building.
From the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency indicative atlas. Under building regulations, as the BRE guide BR 211 (2023) sets out, new buildings and extensions need basic radon protection from class 3 in England and Wales and from class 2 in Scotland, and full protection from class 5. The class at the site itself, from the detailed BGS map, decides which.
