Reason: To ensure that an appropriate sustainable drainage system is provided to serve the development in accordance with policy SWDPR39 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026.

There should be clear flight path to the box without any clutter directly in front of the entrance. Bat boxes should be installed at least 4m above ground-level, facing south (or southwest/southeast), and not placed above windows. Nest boxes for tits, sparrows or starlings should be fixed two to four metres up a tree or a wall. Open-fronted boxes for robins and wrens need to be low down, below 2m, well hidden in vegetation. Bird boxes should face between north and east to avoid strong sunlight.
