Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupants of the neighbouring property with particular regard to outlook and loss of light

What decided it

The development breaches the 45 degree code and causes harmful effects to the outlook and natural light levels of the neighbouring property, conflicting with development plan policies and supplementary planning guidance that protect residential amenity.

Plan policies cited: Policy PG3 of the Birmingham Development Plan 2031, Saved Paragraphs 3.14C and 8.39-8.43 of the Birmingham Unitary Development Plan 2005, 45 Degree Code for House Extensions (2006), Places for Living Supplementary Planning Guidance (2001), Extending Your Home, Home Extensions Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document (2007)

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.
