Authority: North Norfolk District Council
Appeal type: minor · Planning Appeal
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: residential · Minor Dwellings
Inspector: Mileham P

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal is in a suitable location for a new dwelling
The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of adjoining occupiers having regard to overbearing and future occupiers having regard to loss of light

What decided it

The proposal's location outside the settlement boundary in a countryside area where residential development is not supported, combined with harm to living conditions through overbearing impact and loss of light, outweighed the limited benefits of the development.

The limited benefits of economic, social and environmental gains and housing contribution were insufficient to outweigh the conflict with the development plan regarding location and living conditions harm.

Framework references: 79

Plan policies cited: Policy SS1, Policy SS2, Policy EN4

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.

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.
