Development: residential · Minor Dwellings
Inspector: McKay L

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the Bungalow Estate Conservation Area
whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with particular regard to internal accommodation and outlook
whether the proposal would provide safe, suitable access for all users
whether the proposal would make suitable provision for cycle parking and for storage and collection of waste
the effect of the proposal on the integrity of the Epping Forest Special Area of Conservation (SAC)

What decided it

The proposal would not provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers in terms of internal accommodation and outlook, and would not provide safe and suitable access for all users, resulting in conflict with the development plan that was not outweighed by material considerations.

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.
