Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would harm the significance of the Grade I listed Manor House and the Grade II* Registered Park and Garden
Whether it would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt

What decided it

The limited scale, unobtrusive appearance and suitable colouring of the bollards and associated apparatus would not harm the significance of the listed building or Registered Park and Garden, and would not be inappropriate development in the Green Belt.

Framework references: 150

Plan policies cited: CP1, CP12, DM3

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.
