NORTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL
INTERNAL MEMORANDUM
TO: HEAD OF PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT
F.A.O: Patricia Beaton
FROM: Community Greenspace Manager -
Greenspace Development
ASK FOR: Biodiversity and Access Officers
greenspace@northlan.gov.uk
YOUR REF: 22/01276/PPP
MY REF:
DATE:15/11/22
COPIED TO: SUBJECT: Motherwell, New Stevenson,
Cobbleton Road, Land West - Dwellinghouse (in
principle)
Biodiversity
Greenspace Development have previously responded to this application dated 07/03/22
A Preliminary Ecological Appraisal has since been undertaken on the site on the 08/04/22.
Greenspace Development accepts the finding of this survey. However, as the site lies within a Site
of Importance for Nature Conservation, we advise that all recommendation on mitigation and
biodiversity enhancements put forward in Section 5 (Table 5.1. Requirements and
Recommendations for mitigating effects on identified ecological) within the survey report must be
conditioned.
Table 5.1. Requirements and Recommendations for mitigating effects on identified ecological
If works have not commenced within 1 year of this survey an updated survey will be needed.
Bat
The survey identified 1 tree with high bat roost potential and has put forward further survey work
needed. All recommendation within the survey report must be followed with regards to bats. The
further bat surveys must be undertaken before planning permission is given.
Japanese Knotweed
A stand of Japanese knotweed was recorded at the edge of the access track to the site. Japanese
Knotweed should be eradicated using an approved herbicide. Soil with any knotweed in it is
classified as “controlled waste” under the Environmental Protection Act (1990). It is illegal to allow
knotweed to grow in the wild under the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981). Guidance on disposal is
available from SEPA, and on its control from the Greenspace Development Unit. If soil containing a

tiny fragment of this plant is spread on or off site, plants may regenerate facilitating the spread of
this invasive species.
As the Japanese knotweed lies along the access track to the site. A Habitat Management Plan
should be set by a fully qualified contractor.
We also ask that all advice within our original response is taken forward. Including conditioning that
the any services will not go through any further area of Riccard Johnstone SINC out with the
development site.
Access
Access rights under the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 [LRA] currently apply to this application
site, which appears to be tall herb, shrubs and trees.
Section 6(1)(a) of the LRA excludes from access rights land on which there is any building or other
structure or works, plant, fixed machinery, caravans, tents or other places used to give a person
privacy or shelter.
Section 6(1)(b)(iv) also excludes land which is adjacent to a house, caravan, tent or other similar
domestic place as is sufficient to give persons living there reasonable measures of privacy and
undisturbed enjoyment. This would apply to a private garden or driveway.
Therefore, access rights would be lost across the majority of the site, during and upon completion of
the planned dwelling house and associated garden and drive.
Due to the vegetation cover and isolated nature of the site, it’s unlikely that the land is being used in
any meaningful fashion by local access takers.
Core Path 244 runs along Cobbleton Road but should be unaffected by the application.
