Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The main issue is whether the decision of the local planning authority was well-founded.

What decided it

The appellant's sworn evidence for plots 8 and 13 demonstrated, on the balance of probability, continuous breach of conditions 4, 23 and 24 for more than 10 years prior to the material date, establishing immunity from enforcement for those specific lodges only.

Judgments cited: Burdle & Williams v SSE & New Forest RDC [1972] 1 WLR 1207; Gabbitas v SSE & Newham LBC [1985] JPL 630; Lambeth LBC v SSHCLG [2019] 1 WLR 4317; Trump International Golf Club Scotland Ltd v Scottish Ministers [2015] UKSC 74; Royale Parks Limited v SSHCLG and Bournmounth, Christchurch and Poole Council [2021] EWCA Civ 1101; St Anselm

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.
