Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed advertisement on the amenity of the surrounding area, including whether it would preserve the setting and preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the nearby heritage assets
The effect of the proposed advertisement on public safety

What decided it

The less than substantial but considerable harm to the setting of the nearby Grade II listed buildings, which would not be justified or outweighed by the extremely limited public benefits of the proposal.

The less than substantial harm to the setting of the listed buildings was weighed against the public benefits of the scheme (biodiversity net gain, air quality improvements, reduction in vehicle trips and supporting local businesses), and the harm was not outweighed by those benefits.

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.
