Park Farm Office, Wolterton Park, Wolterton, Norfolk, NR11 7LX

the erection of new dwelling and change of use of land to residential curtilage

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

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for residential development having regard to the settlement strategy of the development plan and the accessibility of services and facilities
Whether the proposed development would have an adverse effect on the integrity of The Broads Special Area of Conservation and Ramsar

What decided it

The proposal fails to accord with the development plan settlement strategy by locating residential development in an unsustainable countryside location with poor accessibility to services, and would have an adverse effect on the integrity of The Broads Special Area of Conservation and Ramsar through nutrient pollution without adequate secured mitigation.

Plan policies cited: Policy SS1, Policy SS2

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.
