Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II* listed building, Binley House, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
The extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Alton Conservation Area

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the Grade II* listed building, lacking sufficient substantiated public benefits to justify the harm under paragraph 202 of the Framework, outweighed any other considerations.

Framework references: 194, 197, 199, 200, 202

Plan policies cited: DMS1, DMS2, DMS9

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
