Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the setting of Nunthorpe Hall, which is listed grade II, together with the gates, gatepiers and crescent walls within its curtilage, which are also listed grade II
whether the character or appearance of the conservation area would be preserved or enhanced

What decided it

The proposed building's excessive size and modern utilitarian form would unacceptably harm the setting of the listed building, and no clear and convincing justification or sufficient public benefits had been demonstrated to outweigh this less than substantial harm.

Framework references: 199, 200, 202

Plan policies cited: CS4, CS5

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.
