Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal preserves a Grade II listed building, known as '100-114, Fifth Avenue', and any features of special historic interest that it possesses, including its setting, and the extent to which it preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Queen's Park Estate Conservation Area.

What decided it

The public benefits of the proposal, including reinstatement of railings, improved energy efficiency, and enhanced living conditions, were insufficient to justify the less than substantial harm to the significance of the Grade II listed building that would result from the proposed extension and internal alterations.

Framework references: 197, 199, 200, 202

Plan policies cited: Policy 38, Policy 39, Policy 40

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.
