Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 19 Pembroke Road, 6a and 8 Brickwall Lane, with particular regards to loss of light and outlook

What decided it

The overbearing impact of the featureless two-storey elevation in close proximity to neighbouring residential properties would harm the living conditions of occupiers through loss of light and outlook.

The sustainability of the location and the precedent of similar development at the neighbouring property did not outweigh the harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residents.

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.
